It is with regret I must advise board members of the passing of Nick Makinson 7/12/21 at his home in Komoka, Ontario Canada. Nick was born in Birmingham England. He completed an Engineering apprenticeship in the late 60's
before going to work with his Father in Law, Benjamin Wild, Gunmaker of Price St. B'ham. Nick specialized as a machinist to the trade and was noted for the accuracy of his sleeving work. He moved to Komoka Ont. in the early 80's where he set up business repairing and regulating European Doubles. Before retirement Nick served many customers in both Canada and the U.S. transferring guns through Port Huron. Although I did not know him well we spoke on the phone a number of times.He will be missed by Family, Friends in the trade and those he served as customers.Condolences to his wife Barbara and family
Sincerely. Hugh Lomas.
