Argo, THANK YOU so much for this, to say the least, enthralling study of one of my favorite names in the history of vintage British firearms.

I own two E. M. Reilly double rifles, both caliber .500 BPE

Serial numbers are as follows: 18766 and 18954

Both bear the London and Paris addresses, and both are gorgeous guns aesthetically and superb as shooters.

Thank You again for your scholarly dedication to this most worthy of subjects.
