What do you guys think?
Is there any other documentation supporting this gun's provenance - from the PGCA, from old articles, pics, etc?
I saw the letter they have. Is there anyway to prove that it's authentic?
Guess what rhymes with phoney...

From what I gleaned on the Parker site, the gun has some history--- that's all. It was never the Czar's Parker, period.

I agree, King. In an aside, you gotta love needless secrecy which surrounds this gun and the faked Czar gun. I could tell you all about the court case and who was involved, but let's face it - if I know something you don't, that makes me smarter than you!

Is it that upgrade in leather trunk case that graced pages of DGJ few years ago?
I believe like many Russian aristocrats the victim of October Revolution was a Lebeau-Courally man.

What's really funny about the fake Czar gun is that anyone with $175K to spend on a Parker should have taken one look at it and known it is too 'over the top' to have been made by Parker.

I agree with the above that it was never owned by the Czar nor even left the USA. It was ordered by three officers in the Russian army with the intent to present it to the Czar but never happened. DT will be inspecting the gun after the holidays and he will fill us in at that point I'm sure.
