Allen, I also miss Brad very much. I took annual trips to GR to visit with him and bring guns for his counsel and work. He did indeed do his own case coloring according to him, at least during those years I had guns done. I think his CC work looked as good as that of Turnbull in the guns I have observed first hand (obviously, a small sample size).
