Seig, DelGrego worked for Remington as part of the Parker manufacturing group that had come to Illion from Meriden. He worked on Parker repairs and when Remington decided to get out of the repair business in the late 40s early 50s, Larry senior, senior bought the remaining Parker parts and took over all repairs as a private business. My 28 VHE was shipped in April of 1941. I only know that because I had a letter from Remington to the original buyer, confirming his order. Shortly thereafter, Remington issued a letter to all their distributors indicating that they were out of the civilian gun business by government decree.
