Nostalgia plays a big part as does availability.When I started in the business in the late 1960s,if you walked into a show with a nice Parker,Smith,or Winchester,you drew a crowd. Everyone wanted to see one because they thought they were rare.I looked on Gunsinternational this morning.They have 471 Parkers listed.When you can go down a list like that and price shop,it really takes some of the mystique out of the experience.Really good ones are rare,but the average beginning gun buyer does not know that.
