I'm headed to UK soon, and would like to make a visit to Boss, to, at a minimum, get a copy of any records they have for my gun.

I've made several attempts to email, to set an appointment and ask if they even have any records about the gun, with no replies.

Anyone had a similar experience and/or have any advice?

I have the same issue. I am trying to get records on an 1860 hammer gun I have. They never reply. I too hope to someday get the records.

Do you have a telephone? Ring them up.

I have been admitted to their shop at Kew Bridge unannounced.

They are easy to locate, just take the last turn to the right just before you cross over Kew Bridge (from west to east). They are in a two story brick building just at the bridge. Look in your second edition of D. Dallas' Boss book for a photo of the building.

Vic was a super help for a couple of us and came up with Roy's name. Roy was a great help and while the information was slim, it shed great light on my gun, it's mate, and I am more excited than ever to make my Boss visit. Thanks for all the advice.

Griffin & Howe has some Boss records for guns imported by A&F and VL&D. You can check a serial number online at the link below. Or contact Bob Beach, who handles the records. Bob is very knowledgeable. Griffin & Howe is also the current Boss representative in the US.
