What did Parker Bros do...

[Mike Franzen]

I have seen several PGCA letters on guns that state the gun was ordered by a company or sporting goods store and shipped out on a certain date. Then a later order book shows the gun was returned for credit and shipped out somewhere else. Sometimes several years may have passed. I have wondered if the guns were used and then shipped back and refurbished by Parker? Or, did the gun sit around in inventory because no one bought and then it was shipped out? Did Parker buy used guns and trade in those?
