Humpty, the letter is actually one written by Wilbur Parker to the bloke who bought the gun after the Czar's minions welched on their obligation. It's just the type of letter I would want if I were trying to verify the lineage of a gun prior to buying it. It's also just the type of letter I would fake if I were trying to puff up my gun.

That's my biggest problem with the letter - it sounds more like it was written to entice a buyer in 2006 than what would have been written to a buyer in 1915.


But I dunno.
