Tom Carter and I met with them two weeks ago then last week Charlie Herzog and I met with them. We've supplied them with a sample 1 frame barrel and made available more and in other frame and bore sizes. We've sent the Parker specifications from Parker Pages and are prepared to help or provide any information they need. They can matt ribs by CNC machine that look like Parker ribs and can leave a blank space for the usual rib engraving, Titanic for D's, Vulcan for V's, etc. We've discussed muzzle endings, keels, breech broaching and choke profiles.
The company has the machinery, has been around for many years and it is hoped they will succeed. Its not a fly by night operation by any means, but Parker barrels are not easy to make. We wish them the best.
I should add that they are about 15 miles from me.
