I love beginning posts here with "A Boss gun I once owned"!


Ha! Older Boss guns do not show up very often.

I have been lucky enough to find three Boss pinfires. Nos. 2024 and 2068, double screw grip guns built in 1863 for Charles-Cecil Martyn and Sir Sandford Graham, and no. 2201 built in 1864 a single-barrel screw grip gun, ordered by Sir John Harpur-Crewe. Thankfully they are in their original condition.
