Was The Parker gun salesroom ever at 30 Warren Street?

[Bill Murphy]

I remember my dad leading me around the retail and wholesale gun districts in Philadelphia, New York, Baltimore, you name it. He didn't have to lead me around the gun districts in Washington, D.C. I found them on my own. I'm sure such districts existed in every major city. I think it was all over by the mid sixties.
