I've seen a few GE Lewis Guns I thought were rather nice..
usually 7lb+ pigeon or duck type guns, but I always liked the look of them...would make nice looking clays guns , I thought.
cheers

I don't know, but is I Hollis & sons a lesser known name to anyone here ?
I have 2 of their guns & find them both to be well made.
Most of their output went to South Africa, Canada & Australia so I hear. Sold in the colonies so to speak. This being the case means they must be durable types of guns as they would be used hard & wont be sent back to the makers for service like a lot of guns in England were.
I think they are generally under appreciated.

Scott, since they made a very large percentage of the guns y'all are listing. Only a handful of names had the ability to make an entire gun in house. If Scott (or Webley & Scott) didn't make the entire gun for the name then they provided a huge number of actions and barrels for the trade to finish. And that seems to include a lot of the London trade.
