Living not too far from Manchester I have come across quite a few examples of Manchester Gunmakers' guns. Most I have seen have been excellent examples but less well known as I guess their output was rather small. I have a Newton of Manchester pin-fire and a double .410 hammer gun by Stensby. I went to Stensby's shop sometime before it closed; they being the last of that line. It was a real old fashioned shop and totally out of place in that modern part of the city. I did at least manage to acquire their enamelled metal cartridge sales sign. Hard to find a badly made gun made in that city. Lagopus.....
