I've researched every gun I've owned from 160 years old to 10 years old...

But I never cared how many times James Purdey, W.C.Scott or John Browning had a bowel movement in a day.

Those 3 were the only real innovators in my opinion...the rest were just followers.

Reilly made some nice guns or had some nice guns made...who cares he was a follower.
