Open question to the forum. Some British gun makers have no trouble in showing their production lines and workshops, others do not so. Can any one provide more information on which gun makers are operating from the "trade", local or foreign? There has been some evidence and comments that makers like William Evans (DGJ Index II, pp. 137-141) and William Powell have done this in the past. Some, like Dickson and MacNaughton openly admit that some of their trade models are made in Italy. What evidence is available that some gunmakers get their guns in the white from Spain?
