Ok, I'll chime in and ask what specifically is incorrect with FAQ 32?

When I wrote it, I wrote it speaking to a novice Parker owner who asks the question because he wants to be safe and not damage the gun. I also wrote it without endorsing any ammunition product because I do not think the FAQ area is a place for endorsements of one product over another.

And most importantly, I tried to write it in a manor that doesn't open the PGCA up to litigation. This forum is full of personal discussion and opinion but in my thinking the FAQ area is more of an official PGCA area and we need to be careful on what we recommend there.

Sure, I have pumped heavy loads through my Parker when hunting and I shot nothing else when I was younger; I didn't know I had other selections, I just went to the store and grabbed a box of shells and headed off to hunt. I still may push "factory express" loads while shooting at a bird or two but not when I shoot a hundred rounds on the clays field.

If we want to bring history into this FAQ and post old statistics, I would ask, does this possibly open the liability door? And if so, to what purpose do we strive that we accept the added risk that some novice makes a mistake based on that information?

Any changes to the FAQ will take these areas into consideration. As you focus in on what you want to add, please keep this in mind.

I welcome any changes that will improve the web site and will make them as needed.

Thanks for all your help!
