I can assure you none of my comments were "jealously inspired"....or meant to "rain on the parade".

I've had more than my share of "reality checks" on old guns I've bought.

My comments about the re-color job have nothing to do with how the color "looks"....I only made them because the hinge pin screw is buggered. Doug Turnbull keeps records call him.

Let us know if Turnbull tells you he re-colored the gun...it's going to surprise me if he says he did...if he didn't then the dealer/guy pulled your leg by swinging Turnbulls name around.
