I am not convinced of the common explanations given about the P guns. Has anyone gotten an explanation from Mr. Skeuse? Prototypes? Gifts? Family guns? It seems like a lot of guns for any of those reasons. Could it have been their designated prefix under the Gun Control Act of 1968 which Skeuse got excused from shortly after starting production? It seems like other companies were forced to use prefixes. Why not Skeuse? Winchester used "W". Why wouldn't Skeuse have chosen "P" for Parker, if he had a choice? Maybe ATF excused him from the use of a prefix since his production was so limited.
