Mr. Souther, to your original question of who worked on your gun.

I am only guessing, but there were a couple shops that did cyanide process case colors, among them the Color Case Company in Ohio and DelGrego Gunsmiths in Ilion, NY. The DelGrego's did the preparation work and then sent the work out to another small shop in Ilion.

As for the stock work, I have no idea. There are a number of stockists, and even the DelGrego's sent that work out to friends in the trade. I do not know if it is DelGrego work, but the gun is sufficiently distinctive such that you could send them photos and I would think they would remember the gun if they did any of the work.

I use the DelGrego's for some mechanical work and greatly respect their abilities.
