Turnbull Restoration & Manufacturing Co. founder and CEO Doug Turnbull has been named Man of the Year by Bullet Magazine, the official publication of the New York State Rifle and Pistol Association. The NYSRPA is a national leader in recognizing those who are dedicated to the cause of protecting our gun rights.

"When I was told that I had been honored by this amazing organization, I was speechless," said Turnbull. "The New York State Rifle and Pistol Association is one of the real leaders in fighting for our rights in the Empire State."

Given the well known anti-gun rights attitude of the current governor of New York, the work of the NYSRPA is difficult on a good day and essential to maintaining our Constitutional freedoms. As one of the largest state gun rights organizations, NYSRPA is most often on the forefront of this fight. They are well known for not giving in and not yielding to the pressure from Albany.

"Doug's shop is the go-to manufacturer of choice for those in the know," wrote NYSRPA president Tom King. "Not only is Doug Turnbull's business operation first class, his generosity and ongoing support of our organization is deeply appreciated by everyone at NYSRPA."

Not only is the NYSRPA an important leader in the fight to keep our freedoms intact, but they are also well known for their love and knowledge of the shooting sports. Their recognition is about more than just great guns. It is also about that person or company's dedication to supporting the Second Amendment and the organization.

"It has been my honor and privilege to support the important efforts of NYSRPA over the years," noted Turnbull. "And it is my intent to continue to support them. They are an indispensible part of the shield that protects our rights. Their recognition of myself and my company will always be a source of pride for all of us here at Turnbull."

NYSRPA is recognized nationally as an authoritative voice in identifying those people and companies that support the rights of gun owners. Over the years, the NYSRPA has established this reputation and recognized leaders from companies nationwide that are actively engaged in supporting the defense of the Second Amendment. In addition, they are known as some of the most knowledgeable folks when it comes to quality in the world of firearms.
