1t has been four years before the public, and
its success is really remarkable. It's superiority
over all others, and the claims of the manufac-
turers, are well substantiated by the following
FACTS:
There are more Parker Guns in the hands of
American sportmen than any Foreign breech-
loader. ~ .-t.
There are three times as many Parker Gunsin
the hands of American s%portInen as there are OF
any other American made breeeh-l0ader.
At the Utica convention of the New York State
Sportmen's Association, the number of sports
men who used the Parker gun vas equalt to that
of a1 others who used central fire breech load
ers, of both American and Foreign make COM
bined.
While the Parker gun is 80 often reported as
distinguishing itself at Large shoots throughout
the country, it is n0tlcablet that few such reports
are made of any other gun.
