Pretty much, all of these guns saw action in Whittington this past weekend! See how many you can identify, I'll post the makers names later...

I'll guess Joseph Manton on the first one, from the left. Number 3 looks like a 21, number 4 could be an L. C. Smith, and I agree on Fox for 11 and 12.

3; Model 21. 6; Purdey. 10; Lefever. 11&12; Foxes above C Grade or rewooded. 16; Parker. 19; Flues Ithaca, but that's a stretch. 21; Daly or Sauer. 22; Husquvarna. 23; another Daly or Sauer. 28 and 29; Parker. Numbers 2, 7, and 8, I don't know what they are, but I want them.

I kind of agree with Claudio. #4 "might" be a well worn Purdey but I won't change my vote. #5 is probably Spanish judging by the great percentage of remaining colors and the fiddleback wood figure. I'll say AYA #2. If our votes are right, no fair copying.

24 seems to be either a Utica Fox or something rewooded to resemble one.
