Tony Galazan and Lou Frutoso have come from nothing and built a major business making fine shotguns and buying and reselling classic maker guns. I doubt they are embarrassed about anything. They have also been significant supporters and friends of the PGCA. We recently spent time with Lou trying to explain that the unpleasant forum comments of a few are not representative of the PGCA as a whole and we thanked them for the past participation and hoped their goodwill would continue.
Like anything costly, why create a buzz about how much it costs. People know certain guns are expensive, and like fine cars, art, anything, if you have interest and are more than a tire kicker, a serious person will call. Call on a cell phone under a minutes plan if a person is concerned about the buck or two to call and talk to Lou.
Its a fine Parker, rare, highly unusual, and its one I can admire but leave to the wealthy, and maybe someday get to handle. In the meantime, I'll go back to my old beaters and kinda wish I had the means to get involved in something like those guns.
