Just curious ...what is the background on the Otis Odum guns?

I’m sure it’s discussed in some other thread...

Otis Odom lived in Sycamore, Ga., and made a bunch of money growing turnips. He loved Parkers and fancied the Remington era guns. He didn't hunt or shoot, just collected. He also liked to upgrade them. He was very close with the Delgrego's. He also collected Dresden (sp?) china and taxidermy animals. Every other word out of his mouth had four letters and he had at one time one of the largest collections of Parkers in the country.
