Bill :
Not to contradict you ,but it is my understanding that Roy Guther copied the stock books at Remington to establish the basic data base for the Parker Story , but he also went thru the order books an compiled basic info on guns of D grade and above .This info was used by Charlie Price to compile the techinical statistics for the Parker Story . After the Parker Story was published ,permission was granted by Remington to allow Fjestad to creat the publication of the "Identification & Serialization " using the info previously memtioned . In conclusion , the Identification & Serialization book contains more info than just stock books ,but has excluded ALL info contained in order books of grades BELOW D grade . This is from memory from being aroud the authors of the Parker Story . This should clarify some of the myth .
Either Charlie Price or Bill Mullins can varify this .
Respectfully
Allan
