Good question and as I had never heard of one I checked on the Internet and came up with this http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hartmans-Dutch-Gunmakers-From-Century/dp/9078521015 He lists 1350. Wonder why we don't come across more examples. Less luck with Portugal and just came up with this http://www.gundeal.co.uk/manuel-ricardo-gun-stock-maker-accessory-1265

I did once go in a Portugese Gunshop in Lisbon out of curiosity. Took a photo of the exterior. Maybe they were overshadowed by Spanish Makers. Lagopus.....

and what about polish made sxs's? gotta be some somewheres?

and least we forget, what about sxs's made in latvia, estonia and lithuania?

Did Dicksons in Edinburgh not have a few Round Actions made in Holland about 30 years ago?

IIRC the later Ithaca Classic Doubles VGM-made receivers were from Holland.

And what about Antarctica Ed? As long as we're going to ask stupid questions, we might as well ask about Antarctica?

But maybe we don't see guns from some of those countries you mentioned simply because they have disarmed as you say we should do here:

You said it Ed. Don't shoot the messenger.







A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

What about Antarctica? Why is there no double gun makers there? Huh? Why not?

Maybe if I ask again, i will get an answer that makes me happy.

Antarctica is not a country, and it has no Government. Can guns be outlawed in a place where Govt does not exist?
