By September 1903, the Moran & Wolfersperger ads were stating that they had fitted their ejectors to over 500 Parker Bros. guns --

By 1904, they had reformed as Moran & Wolf Gun Co. with C.A. Cooper as President, Ross C. Wolfersperger as Vice President and Mathew E. Moran as Secretary, and their ads were offering "Our new Breech=Loading Hammerless Shotgun."
