That would be Odis Odom.

Just before the break-in and burglary when 2 local thugs terrorized his wife, Odis' count was, I believe, 68 28 gauge Parkers and 42 .410 gauge Parkers.

While the thugs never even knew about his guns or where they were hidden, they so terrorized his wife (he wasn't home at the time) that he immediately began to sell off his most valuable guns, contemplating what might have happened to his wife had the thieves known that he had them.

Odis was a prime client of the Del Gregos, but does not hold the record for having Parkers "fixed" and upgraded by them.
