They have files separated by customer name. Good luck.

Post pics of it. Delgrego “restorations” are easily spotted. Especially early ones.

I called Larry on a GH 28 gauge that I thought was a restoration by them. As already mentioned they do not track work by serial number. Larry offered to have me send him the gun which I did. He did confirm that the work had been done by his father. Excellent customer service.

That is not old delgrego work. It could be more recent work as he colors look like they could be turnbull colors. Turnbull currebtly colors delgregos guns for them. And notice how the checkering borders are not properly mullered. This is something i have been noticing of recently delgrego restored guns, checkering borders not being correctly cut. I dont know if they forgot how to do it or what???
So, the gun COULD be done by them in the last 5 years or so, or not at all.

Del Grego wouldn't be the gunsmith for Dale's gun. The screws are terribly damaged, probably before the refinish.
