Hello Argo.Your research on the Reilly's is pretty amazing.The examples I have seen over the years have all been from very good to superb. Obviously they catered to a high end crowd both in Britain and internationally.I will re post my earlier info on my E.M.Reilly hammer pigeon gun and add some pics I had on file.
Sorry for the quality as they were taken quite a while back.I have owned this gun for over 40 years and it is a dream to shoot.
Let me know if any further info would be of use. Terry Lubzinski

My apologizes for not following up on a posting I made in 2010 and adding some information that may add to your chronological listings.Said posting can be found at this address

xxxxx - (1880’s?)
Name: Not mentioned.
Description: E.M.Reilly bar-in wood 12 bore with Whitworth steel barrels circa 1885 with 2 3/4" chambers,30" mod. and full and nitro proofed. It has a large capital "B" in 24 carat gold where the oval would normally be.
Comment: This is Terry Lubzinski’s gun…He could add more info including SN, and address on rib, etc.
The gun is serial # 303xx and has only the 277 Oxford St. address not the Rue Scribe.What may be helpful is that the original black powder proofs include Not For Ball which should place the gun at 1887 or earlier.The gun is a personal favorite and still performs regular service at sporting clays

Better to keep your mouth shut and be thought stupid,than open it and confirm.
