Names don't matter to me as much as craftsmanship.


I wasn't talking about you specifically Chris but you missed the point I was trying to make. In that post I'm not talking about names or craftsmanship. For example, Alfred Hollis, try running some information on that English name you probably won't find anything at all. However, his name appears on the barrel but someone else actually built that gun. A double gun that was pretty famous for its heavy use in Africa.

That is an example of what a buyer of English guns can run into when looking. People will rely on their own investigative skills trying to run down a name appearing on the barrel and may discount it if you cannot find any information.

Good luck and I hope you find what you're looking for. smile



Ahh, I got it. Sometimes I am slow.
