"English guns have a different history". Regarding the use of machines? Hmmmm. Christopher G. Bonehill "Belmont Interchangeable". BSA. Midland. W&C Scott. H&H. Purdey. Greener. All of them used machines in the manufacture of their guns, all of them. The myth that some poor sap sat at a bench with 75 pound chunks of steel and hammered and filed it down into parts to assemble a gun is ridiculous. It simply did not happen like that.
Mr. Chuck is right. Unfortunately Chuck, it doesn't matter. People are going to believe what they want regardless of what's real and what's a myth.
