Forgot to mention I have a Parkhurst coach gun with phony Wells Fargo brass plate and impressed rack number. This faked rack number matches the Cold Lake-Bonnyville MD #87, where I reside.
Just weird....

Not a number coincidence, but I had a February 1945 date block G43 once. It was the only rifle I've ever handled that gave me the willies, not even Finnish Capture SVT40s that were taken off frozen Russian corpses. It was like I could feel the crushing anguish and pain of the people who were forced to make it. Either they were slaves or miserable from working in the cold, damp and hunger of late WW2 Germany. I sold that rifle as fast as I could.

That's funny , I get the same feeling from them . I realize it's a piece of history ,and others are welcome to collect them . It's just me .
