Re: W.J. Jeffery History

In reply to:
Since Jeffery used a lot of Krupp barrels for his double rifles, it could be assumed that few were bought in as barreled actions, which would seem to excude Leonard as a major source.
470,
I wonder how these Krupp Steel barrels got on my Leonard action A. Hollis and son 450/400 3 inch?
and this W.J Jeffery 475#2 Jeffery a Leonard action as well.
Not to take issue with you sir, of all the Leonard actions, including those provided to Jeffery that I have seen, all have sported KRUPP STEEL. All have had the Leonard digits that sequence with Jeffery/A. Hollis serial numbers.
Once again, I will atest to the records and rifles I have seen. Barreled actions for most of Jeffery's doubles rifles were largely supplied by Leonard.
