I toured the shop, and met the old man and the eldest boy. They were furnace brazing O/U barrels that day, the shop was neat and well lit. They weren’t very interested in the US market at the time, which, I didn’t really understand, but, they ended up with a few importers over the years. Hope none of them are awaiting a load of new guns anytime soon.
The family was well to do. They made a great living on that name.

Best,
Ted
