Does anyone have any information about O.R. Dickey? I looked through all of the Sporting Life clips, there are alot of listings about where he was shooting and his scores, but not much about him personaly. Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris

Placed orders for some of the most interesting Parkers in the order books. Orren R. Dickey was a serious gun dealer. Because he ordered so many Parkers for his customers, it is very hard to pin down which were his personal guns.
