The Birmingham and London gunmaker trade is all new to me and quite confusing. I wonder why Andrews is not well known or at least well publicized? It would be nice to know more about his company and the rifles they made. I would love to locate a picture of the trade label they used. I'm fairly new to double rifles. Do you know of a pictoral anatomy of a double rifle so I could better understand the construction process and terminology of the parts? This particular Andrews is in the 4xxx serial number range. It would be interesting to know its production year or even an approximate number of rifles that were made by them. Although not significantly adorned, this rifle locks up tight and is very solidly built overall. The machining tolerances and fit of the parts seems quite good. I noticed that the internal lock parts are all polished with no machine or file marks appearing anywhere. Again, thanks for the help and knowledge, Marrakai. |
