Parker letter question...

Thank you, Dave. I really need to get more serious about tackling my copy of TPS.

Interesting, Bill. I'm sticking with Mr. Dunn as the owner until I discover he was a dealer. I framed a picture of that little blue house above and slid it in the safe alongside the 16. I could tell right away she felt a little more comfortable next to that picture. It was like the tension of being cramped inside my safe alongside a bunch of strangers for the last couple of weeks had been lifted from her breech. I might have even heard a bit of laughter this morning from behind the door, but that might just be the Hoppe's.

I also copied the picture of Dunn's home in Madison. These are two very unusual guns and with great provenance. My Dunn 16 was on display at the Fall Southern in September and was enjoyed by everyone who tried to pick it up. The order specified 8 pounds, 13 ounces.

Bill, I sent an email to a Bill Dunn I found in Madison Wisconsin. The guy is probably not related, but I figured no harm, no foul. There are probably hundreds of Dunn's in Wisconsin, but given his name is Bill I thought it worth an inquiry regarding his possible relation to W.G. Dunn.

I'll let you know if he responds back. On a side note, the guy I emailed is the editor for one of those heathen groups which fight to remove all references of God from everything. What kind of person sets out on a mission in life to remove God from our daily lives? I'll let you know if he responds back to me.

Mr. Dunn responded this morning. He and his family are new to Wisconsin as of 1983.
