I was asking myself that same question yesterday.
I think I should look at TPS again and if necessary make a correction.


Okay, I somehow missed mentioning Robert P. Runge; this straight from page 454 of The Parker Story, “Master engraver Robert “Bob” P. Runge who began employment at the Gun Works in 1934…” when the Gun Works was under the ownership of Remington Arms and eventually retired from Remington.
