Commissioned by Remington Arms to original Parker standards, in my opinion it is as real a new Parker as you can get today... only it is produced in a different, modern plant by, of course, different employees (nobody lives forever - even in earlier Parker days).

Perfectly acceptable 28 gauge and .410 bore guns can be reproduced using either the 000 or the 00 frame for either gauge. The factory produced both gauges of gun on both sizes of frame, so Tony could do the same. With the proliferation of Parker Repro 20 gauges for $3000 to $4000, the market for the expensive Galazan version would be nonexistent.

You could say the same thing about Parker Reproductions, except they were commissioned by Tom Skeuse, Sr. instead of Remington, eh?
