I believe Reilly made guns, though not necessarily every gun they stamped with their name. Great makers sold guns brought in the white and finished in house. Holland, Purdey, even Boss as BLE by John Robertson did.

I understand this thread is as close to interminable as a thread can get, however I accept and respect the passion for Reilly Argo has as I accept that which we all share here for doubleguns. Long before I got a Boss or Purdey I got a very nice Reilly that I still like and use as my Rainy Day gun

I also think Argo is just stirring things up with the Purdey remark. I bite on it, because I can’t see Purdey buying guns from them at that point.
