Here are my thoughts as a Parker shooter, collector and enthusiast.

I don't use the term "real Parker". There are various Parkers and all are interesting, desirable and have their own merits depending upon personal preference details, availability and costs.

These include Parker Bros ( Meriden), Remington Parker transition guns ( Meriden), Remington Parker ( Ilion), Parker Reproduction ( I use this term because that is what the maker called them) and the new Remington CSMC Parkers. I have or have had them all except the new Remington CSMC Parker and I would be very interested in that gun.....only if. I only exclude the 1980's Remington Parkers because there are just a handful of them.

Great guns, all of them.

As I recall from seeing the Goldenberg gun, it isn't an unadorned production model. How about that, Dean? Right or wrong?

.... Right! I was there too when Ken opened the case at Pintail.


You can say that again Bill. What a nice Parker that is.

OK, for use folks that weren't there when Ken opened up the case, please describe the gun for us. I'm assuming it is one of the Remington Parkers made in the 1980's??? Gauge, grade, etc.

I've done a few letters for him, he lives in the next town over from where I grew up. I may need to pay him a visit next time I'm in the area.
