My research tells my that W Richards guns were only made in Liverpool. I have a hammer gun with the only marks being "W Richards & Co. London " on the top rib. The only barrel markings are what looks like a Birmingham provisional barrel mark, 14m, and a "not for ball" stamp. There are no markings on the barrel flats and no serial number anywhere. The quality of the gun and engraving is better then what I would think to come out of Belgium.
Is it possible that it is a Liverpool made gun sold in London?
All comments appreciated.
