Early on I bought a Parker at auction that had been refinished. I thought the gun looked good and wanted to find out who did the work. I contacted a number of shops that did restoration work including Doug Turnbull's. Everyone I contacted said they did not have the gun in their records. The late Larry DelGrego told me to send him pictures and he would be able to tell by looking at the gun who the work was done by ( I have found that a number of those in the N/E have very strong opinions LOL). Larry told me he thought that Creekside did the work. Larry said that Creekside was the shop owned/run by Doug Turnbull and his father before Doug started his own shop. At the auction, it was stated the restoration was done by Turnbull's. Who knows?
