Postoak, a lot of guns in Britain were made in the trade and sold off and then finished allowing that person to put their name on. After a while you sort of get the knack of working out who actually made it, either from the style or small initials of workers marked on the barrels or action. I would doubt if a quarter of the guns in my collection were actually made by the person whose name appears on the rib. Still, it all makes it very interesting. Lagopus.....
