I recently acquired an original cased pair of 20 bore Army & Navy double guns. The guns were stored for years in a humid environment and need extensive restoration. This is being done by my friend Jim Kelly of Darlington Gun Works. The exterior of the case is good but the interior is in a shambles. All the partitions are there but it needs new felt and restoration. Who would be the best person to send it to & have this done?

Best Regards, George

If you want to spend serious money Huey has a guy that does resoration for old cases. Check out his web site.
FEI did a new interior and restoration on the exterior for me a few years ago for a Holland.

You also might try Kevin McCormack who posts here and on the Parker collectors site from time to time. He is in Virginia and may take on the job..

Thanks to Norm and all the others for your help. I spoke with George Pittelko last night & am going to take my case to him on Tuesday. He is less than two hours from me & really sounds like he knows his cases.

Best Regards, George
