    Yes, who can forget that P-H shambles, and the Tom Senior milling machines rusting away, along with a heritage and name recognition built over generations.

    Wouldn't happen in some countries I could name.

    “There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

    Edward Bernays, 1928

    Much changes, much remains the same.

    It isn't the PH factory, it is the AJ Parker factory - totally differemt operation and very strong competitors.

    The AJP factory was in the middle of an industrial area. The PH facility was out on the edge of Parkland, when they closed, it became a shop selling mattresses.
    Mine are not the best, but they are not too bad. I can think of lots of Enfields I'd rather have but instead of constantly striving for more, sometimes it's good to be satisfied with what one has...
