Well, Dean, there was this story, started in a newspaper article in a Meriden newspaper before the war...........Oh, heck, it's to much information for you to absorb. I assume you are new to this Parker business. Joking of course.

Okay Bill, I'll take the bait... I know about The Romanof Czar's Parker no. 168304 but I wasn't aware of the colonel who ordered it or the Czar himself ever shopping at Kerr's. Further, I wasn't aware 168304 was made as a two-barrel set, or maybe I had forgotten. Maybe someone could fill us in on the details.
Maybe it was the New York gentleman who had the gun stashed away for so many decades was the one who shopped at Kerr's?
