Ok Last nights reading of The Gun Shop by Tom Kerr.
Didn't you all wish you were buying that "Trojan" with Tom?
How many times have we run into mis-marked and mis-represented Parkers , with good and bad results for us collectors/shooters.
Great story Tom.

I neglected to mention the short essay by Dean on Patina. Thanks for reminding us Dean-o.
I myself put a great price on original patina on a Parker and it always shocks me of efforts to wipe out patina by a thoughtless and un-necessary refinishing.
Of course, I have now realized a new way to help me build provenances for guns: DNA.
