Just purchased this one and I am awaiting it’s arrival. I know there were some Turnbull Bisley’s and SBH’s but I don’t remember any flat tops. Do any of y’all know if this was a factory special that was offered at some time. Or do you think someone sent it out and had it done. opinions? Thanks, Jonathan.

I’d say not factory because of the nitre blue pins but stunning none the less.

Definitely not factory, but sure looks like a fine grab. Congratulations on a great find.

If I call Turnbull with the serial number, I wonder if they would be able to tell me if they did the work?

I have called them regarding firearms in which I've contemplated purchasing to confirm they in fact did the work. Nice Flattop!!! ETA: I would bet it's Turnbull's work.

The serial number would have to be logged in and out of the A&D book so they should have record of it. I would imagine it’s just a matter of them having time to look it up etc depending on work load.
Seeing the lacquer finish on the loading gate in the first pic sure looks like their work for sure. Great looking pistol.

I remember Turnbull doing a run of these and sold them I house not for a distributor. Want to say they were $1250 if my flawed memory works. Not Sure if anything other than finish work was done and it that’s true they seemed a bit proud of them but they sure are pretty.

WOW then I guess less than $550 out the door was a great price.
Thanks, Jonathan
