I have a SC SBT that I believe was redone by Del Grego. It was gun of the month on the home page a while back. There are pics of it in my albums. I like their work. They're case colors are strong but appear to be cyanide. I've met and talked with Larry and I would trust him to do any work.

I have a DH I bought a couple years ago that was redone in 1969 and remained unshot until I got it. I have a letter from Mr. DelGrego to the then-owner explaining what he did. I think the charge was about $200 soup to nuts.

A few years back I had a DelGrego refinished-to-mint 12-ga. VHE, 30" F/F on a 2-frame that was converted to a straight grip and restocked with an appropriate-to-grade piece of American black walnut and a checkered butt. Wonderful workmanship, but despite my best efforts, I could never warm up to those gaudy cyanide colors. A good friend of mine wanted her more than I, so it went to him. He had the chokes opened and a Silver's pad put on, shot it for awhile and sold it to another mutual friend that has an obsession of changing inventory on a near weekly basis. It was used as trade bait shortly thereafter and that's when I lost track of it.

I own Three:
16ga "0" Frame SG 20ga "0" Frame SG 20ga "0" Fram PG These are my hunting guns and are shot all season at Quail, Chukar, Sharptail, and Pheasants. They go back in February for a good cleaning and tuneup. I have more "vintage" guns but these are my baby's...I couldn't ask for more. Larry always has the time to chat, does good work and is true to his word. A true piece of americana! D |
