Default Message from new member.

As a new member, I just wanted to express my appreciation for the kindness and support of the "veteran" members of this organization.. A simple welcome to a new member, may only take a few seconds to type, but it means a lot to us, and encourages us new guys and gals to become more involved with the group. I hope you hear often, the gratitude from new members, and our appreciation of your kind words, welcome, and shared knowledge of the Parkers.

Also, I am very impressed by the new member package I received today-- very very nice. It communicates well the professional fabric and friendliness of the organization. I have belonged to many groups, clubs, and organizations (nice way of saying I am old!), but never received such a nice welcome gift. Receiving a membership list is really appreciated. Kudos to those members who make that welcome package happen.

Although I am new to Parkers, and I only own one, I look forward to more involvement with the gun and this organization.

Thank you.

Dave Wilson

If you are able to attend any of the shoots or functions in which these folks participate you will find them to be as kind and willing to help in person. And great company to boot. I have been able to attend a few in the northeast and enjoyed them greatly and learned a lot along with seeing and handling some great Parkers and other guns. Welcome and enjoy.

Andy on your balance sheet simply move some cash out for the guns you bought, add a larger number than the cash you took to buy said guns to your gun collection value as surely you will buy them at a lesser value than their real worth. You should probably add a little value in the receivables for the obvious anticipated future appreciation. Now your net worth just went up. Don't ya feel much better now

Andy:

I’m with Randy. The U.S. dollar is losing 7.5 percent of its value every year, and that’s just Uncle Sam’s official number. (Yes, the fox is guarding the henhouse.) What better time than now to go to the Southern and turn those dollars into Parkers!

Victor,
I like your thinking. Also, let’s get a Parker guarding the henhouse.
