Dig, can you assure that all outsourcing goes to ex-employees? If not, your answer
sounds as if "as long at it's made in England all is well". Bit chauvinistic me thinks ;-)

The question is very clear: are the guns made "in house" or are they commissioned
elsewhere, and if so is this "out" for the buyers to evaluate?

If I were to realize my dream of getting a Famars Castore, I know it will be made by
them although the engraving will probably be outsourced, but that is to be expected.
Most best engravers are artists that work at home or at their specialized ateliers.

Who makes them, who has them made by someone else? That is the question.
In other words are they selling only a marque and quality control?

Best,

JC
