Default Order Tags?

Greetings and Salutations! According to the list on the PGCA website, there is an order tag available for my gun, #10250. I was under the impression that, if an order could not be filled from stock on hand, a tag was filled out to start production on a gun to fill the order. For those of you who have obtained your order tag(s), do your tags have the name of the person or retail store that initiated the order? A person's name would be cool, but a store with a geographic location is quite all right by me! Cheers!

We have you gun in order book # 1 but we do not have a work order tag. The order book would indicate, dealer, maybe individual, when ordered and the price. The early books lack detail as compared to the latter books.

Mark,

Ser# 10250 is in the list of Parker Work Order Tags that was done by Ron Kirby years ago and that list can be seen by following the link(s) on the Parker Store page. I'm wondering if the list is in error and if so how corrupt might the list be. What are your thought about the accuracy of the list?

Here's the story, we do have the tag. I also had another request yesterday on a tag which was on the list and not on my data base. I went back to the boxes we got from Ron which contained the tags and there was still a small sandwick bag that had these early small tags. For some reason I did not put them in the data base. I will be adding these tags to the data base this week. I would say there are about 50 of them of which most are the tags in the 10xxx range.

This is the first example of a request where a # was on Ron's list was not on the data base. Once I have added all the tags to the data base, I'll check the overall # to see if they match.

Thanks Robin for pointing this out.

Mark
