Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Both Doug Turnbull and Brad Bachelder are highly regarded among Parker collectors for being closer than anybody else. Some re color jobs turn out better than others, and they have both refined their colors over the years.
However, I am aware they they cannot absolutely predict the precise result, and you seem to have a precise acceptable result in mind, so you may never get exactly what you want. Both Bachelder and Turnbull have websites, and show their re case color jobs. If you don't see something acceptable there, I don't think you would be satisfied with either.
Both Brad Bachelder and Doug Turnbull are PGCA members, both have been friends and supporters to the organization and have attended PGCA meetings. Brad is frequently on this forum. I am aware that some very particular and discerning Parker collectors have chosen either Bachelder or Turnbull to do re case jobs, and I am aware that at a Julia's auction a couple years ago, experts believed that several Parkers had original case colors until Doug Turnbull advised that he had redone them. I personally do not have any re case colored guns and live with what I have.
