I know between the beginning of 1878 and as late as 1886 greener bought from brazier I don't know how many ,but I think setting up building actions barrels and stocking when you go can buy from the trade and finish it makes a lot of sense .who knows I could never find how many actions brazier made for the trade but there were many company's that made for the trade.i was reading about a small company that put out something like 8000 guns for the trade and almost nothing in there name.
