wonder if they could make a buck by producing repros of small bore field grade parker and fox guns...
a 410 sterlingworth with 30" barrels would be a cool skeet gun...
In 1989 when Parker Reproductions lost their production facility in Japan they searched the world for another manufacturer to produce their guns to their quality standards. They found that they'd have to sell their Parker Reproduction gun for $10,000 each. With the inflation we've had since 1989 a Parker Reproduction would have to sell for $19,800.00 for it to be profitable for a company to make it a viable endeavor today.
With that kind of a price tag I wouldn't be looking for another repro of a Parker anytime soon. Perhaps a repro Sterlingworth could be produced for a bit less, but I wouldn't be looking for one of those 30" .410s anytime soon either. It makes for a good dream though, eh?
