Remington Repairs during WW2

[Alfred Houde]

That was simply my point. I don't understand the "I know something you don't know, or I'll release it when I think the time is right" mentality.

No work is ever really finished, and previously unknown or new information is uncovered and turns up all of the time. This is why books are revised, and new editions are published.

Maybe an idea could be The Parker Story Volume 3?

I actually worked with a guy once who made the comment - "Books are BS. I haven't read one since high school."

He got no argument from me on his reading them part.

Books certainly are NOT “BS” but the information in them becomes outdated, revised and sometimes even becomes obsolete.

The information in TPS is the best we could have ever hoped for at the time of publication… (See my statement above.) And certain parts of it have been expanded on here on the forum. There were errata sheets published but as of today another small volume of information that isn’t found in TPS could be published as an addendum.

So how does this organization get there from here?

[Dean Romig]

I don’t think it’s up to the organization (PGCA ?).
I believe it’s up to a concerned group of Parker followers.

A good start that would cause me to want to share my information would be for PGCA to come off the information they have locked away.

[Dean Romig]

Bill, I was a BOD member for two consecutive terms and had seen and examined the PGCA Collection and there was no unshared information in it. There were a lot of parts, pieces and artifacts but to the best of my knowledge there was nothing thad hasn’t been shared in one form or another. Probably the most valuable of them were the John Moses Browning Parker and an original, almost mint, clown catalog. If anyone has any information that hasn’t been shared, it is most likely privately owned, and not in the possession of the PGCA as an organization.

I have never seen anyone remark about Griffin & Howe/ Abercrombie & Fitch on this forum. It would seem to me that a representative of the PGCA might be able to gather new information in regards to Parkers. A talk with Doug Turnbull or the widow of Herchel Chadicks might be a resource. People who share knowledge with the PGCA could have it published in the Parker Pages with evidence if available
