While copying the Parker records some years ago in Ilion, it was noted that there were many, many orders from Simmons Hardware in Saint Louis , MO---gate way to the west-- that covered several pages per order or hundreds of guns per order during the 1880,s and forward. I am sure that many were used as utility guns, but for sure there were those that survived in good shape and are still in collections/ownership in the west.
