Ed you forget Browning and Parker. But buying names are a poor investment. And condition is everything. Plus too many upgrades and refinished guns have flooded the market with fake rare guns. I bought an Upgraded 42 Pigeon Grade to match my real Pigeon grade. I know who did the upgrade. It was bought for money not as large as a real gun would command but well above a standard gun. I had the word upgrade engraved on the gun under the pigeon so there could be no attempt at subterfuge down the road. I gave it to my middle son and he shoots skeet with it. It is a nice looking gun but not a real pigeon grade 42 worth several thousand dollars.
