Ah! I was just going to add that the gun(s) I read about were NOT marked Richards, which of course has a string of "extended family" makers as Rocketman listed.

That is what struck me: RICHARD It seemed odd to me to see a singular name on a sideplate, but of course that was the reason there was no confusion with the other "RichardS" .

IMO, the Belgian made guns marked Richard(s) were exactly somarked in hopes of associationwith the Brit Richards brands. That an individual gun marked A. Richard is of high quality is surprising. The Belgian trade certainly was capable of making best work guns. However, they were not usually made with "hardware names."

i am also surprised. everything about this gun is quality. even the wood is english walnut of presentation grade. [100% burled walnut covered stocks]. finely checkered horn butt plate and p.g. cap. i was really surprised when it arrived. i thought i bought a project gun but this gun will go untouched as it needs no improvement.

I love looking at "presentation grade" wood.
