Many, many thanks to Bill Zachow, Mark Conrad (former PGCA Research Chairman) and Bill Murphy for setting the record straight on the Parker records as they are presented in both The Parker Story and the Parker Gun Identification & Serialization book.
Every day holds a new learning experience for me and I am sure for a great many visitors to this forum, both PGCA Members and non-members alike. Someday I hope we can get all of this information down in one volume of extraneous Parker Collector Information that doesn't pertain strictly to the guns but also to the history of the PGCA, its formation, how information was obtained, how it was used, how it was recorded - anything and everything we can learn from those who have been involved since the beginning of the PGCA and even before. Time will run out on our ability to do this if we don't start very soon.
