John, did you speak with Steve himself or someone who is speaking for him?

An easily accessible e-version would be invaluable to folks at gun shows or gun shops, looking to buy an appealing Parker where a quick verification of its configuration is a very necessary tool. My copy is about dilapidated enough that I rarely take it out of the house anymore and besides, it is very cumbersome to lug around at a show. How nice and convenient it would be to have the app on my smart phone where I could search by serial number.

True enough. But outside of collegial associations like PGCA, the primary value in this book is the information it contains. If Blue Book Pubs could see significant black ink at the end of any on-line version or smart phone "app," I'm sure they would consider them. Perhaps they don't foresee that success. Especially if they still have a warehouse full of unsold books.

Alternatively, PGCA could buy-out the copyright from Blue Book and do what they wish...
