Ten yrs ago my wife and I drove out to DelGregos shop and dropped of my granfathers 16 ga Parker VH to be completely restored with new wood et al. We met both Babe and Lawrence. They both were extremely gracious and helpful. Will never forget meeting those two masters.

Forrest Marshall had them do several A-1 Special upgrades over the years . And each year a gun was completed I assume this gentleman would drive it down and Forrest would have a cocktail party unveiling . I wasn’t a direct invitee but was asked once by an invitee if I’d like to attend , sorry to say I wasn’t able to take them up on it .
