Any opinions on them? From the 30s quality? Well made?

Hi, I have a 16b Hellis, but not the Featherweight model. She was made just prior to the Great War and sold after. I can tell you that Hellis guns are excellent quality guns. Mine is one of my favorite guns. Excellent handling and balance, excellent fit and finish, just a top notch example of the Gunmakers art. Here's some info on my gun:



And the gun itself:



Hard to beat a Hellis.

Best,

Greg
