I should have titled the post "The first successful centre-fire gun, which launched the rapid changeover from pinfire to modern system sporting guns in Britain' ....
But it was too long and all I really wanted to say was "look at the nice gun, it is interesting'.
Apologies to all the fine foreign gentlemen I dissed! C&B do indeed explain it all very fully.
I don't think we'll be seeing any new Daw guns in the near future but you never know. I think James is just happy to own a piece of history and it makes a nice excuse to collect all sorts of bits and pieces connected with the firm. He is the son of Bill Blacker,in my opinion one of the very best barrel makers working, who does a good deal of work for me.
