I don't remember many discussions here except for one sample gun with two chambers merging into single barrel. Always wanted to find out if anyone was loco to pull trigger on that one. Anyway, you want Joseph Braddell, Belfast. I believe that was the best well known Irish shop.

Rigby started in Dublin. I expect there were "provincial" makers there

But the natives were restless. I expect the trade was controlled

Trulock / Trulock Bros worked in Dublin.
(No Trulock wasn't a design although it would have been a good name for one smile ).

Kavenaugh was another Dublin Dealer whose guns turn up in the states time to time

Ireland does not have a real strong side by side industry as gun controls and market competition from London and Birmingham were too strong. There was activity, but not on par with others

Many modern (Hammerless) guns which bear the names of Irish Firms were sourced from Birmingham
