Turk Barrett is a small time crook from Hell's Kitchen and frequent enemy of Daredevil, often working for crime bosses Vladimir and Anatoly Ranskahov before betraying them and working for Wilson Fisk. He was later arrested by the FBI for his involvement in Fisk's criminal empire. Once freed on parole, Barrett continued his criminal ways, selling guns to criminals fighting the Punisher as well as supporting Cottonmouth's organization, but Barrett was soon found and stopped by Daredevil before being kidnapped by the Hand, only to be rescued by Daredevil. Barrett then continued his criminal ways, selling weapons for Diamondback.
