PS…. Cdr. Gunther drove from Averill Park NY to Illion NY every day for one month to copy the records. He would copy all day and actually “burned” up one of Remington’s copy machines! They instructed him to bring his own copier in the future. Ron Kirby, then Executive Director of the PGCA had a son who sold copying machines and gracefully supplied one for the remaining coping necessary!

Are there any plans to ask Roundhill LLC for access to the books in an effort to fill in the blanks on guns below grade 3? This group of guns makes up a significant number of additions to new, entry level collectors, and could be a significant source of new research letter revenue.

Edgar, there is no need to review the Order Books. This assumes all the Order Books were copied that Remington has and that the PGCA has all of these copies. What would be needed is someone to go through each Order Book order for guns grade 0,1, and 2 and see if the gun is in the Serialization Book (made from the Stock Books). If it's not found in the Serialization Book, it could be included in a new Serialization Book revised edition. I don't think the authors of TPS own that database but I could be wrong. It's not a job I would want.
