Craig, as I recall, one of Fred Gilbert's competition Parkers is in the collection of an obscure stockmaker from Maine, named David Trevallion. It was displayed in the Gold Medal Concours at Millbrook a few years back. I believe that gun was also written about in some publication a few years back.

I'll have to ask David about that Gilbert gun the next time I visit with him. I haven't seen it in his shop where I believe all of his guns are.

I know David had Gilbert's B grade and that it was for sale.
