I have an article in the January/February 2017 issue of Shooting Sportsman magazine entitled Thumbs-Up Guns. The article is my last 'push' for Powell related information. I'm interested in pictures, sales receipts, ads, etc. Of particular interest are patent action (lifter & cross-bolts) percussion and flintlock guns. If you can assist, I can be reached at steveatpowellspatent.com or spephenatjohnrigbyandco.com

They are marked William and Powell. They are not marked with Son. The address on the barrel is 25 Castle st. Any interest in getting information on these?

To add some confusion, William Powell & Son made guns for Williams & Powell. My book is only focused on William Powell & Son.
