We (some PGCA members) examined the Simmons attempt to manufacture Parker barrels. The initial inspection made clear that their present shop employees could not duplicate the quality of past efforts with Winchester and Krieghoff barrels. The barrels were very poorly made and couldn't be fitted to existing Parkers, regardless of claims to the contrary. The Simmons representative could not have been more unaware of the result of their attempts. Nice guy, though. Our one meeting ended the Simmons project. We heard no more from them. I was very disappointed.
