Default Parker and DelGrego on CNN

I was surprised to see this video pop up on the CNN business page. I was more surprised to see it had not yet been posted here. If it has already - my apologies.

Very interesting, I just talked to L. DelGrego today about a gun he is repairing and apraising for me. I am very glad one of the members on this forum recommended him to me. He was a wealth of information, polite and courteous.

About 4 years ago in a conversation with Lawrence, he made a comment to me about having records that the PGCA did not have. At the time, I didn't give it much thought nor thought it was a controversial statment.

It's been known for many years that they had record books in their possession. I don't believe the PGCA has ever made a serious attempt to acquire them. There are various suppositions as to why they've always been so quiet about them. Odd that they've discussed them publicly on this interview, maybe they're ready......

I was so elated to see, and lets be honest, just a nice video about firearms from a major new outlet. Not just that - beautiful guns that we adore....and the boxes of parts!! wow!

I didnt even stop to consider the records books in their possession may not have been looked by the PGCA, etc.

Very, very interesting.

Nice piece. Someone at CNN must be a Parker guy how else would they know about DelGrego.

Really nice to see some positive press for a change. Made even better that it's about Parkers.
