Re: Oh those ubiquitous H&H 8bores!

I am a huge fan of the AR programme, (UK one, havent seen any other) but no, I must incline to disagree......Baker seems to have had eff-all money wise for example, Selous I am not sure on but pretty sure he was not rich or titled/both.
I shall see if I can find an 1880 catalogue with a price or two and use some other items to give conversion rates.
From what I remember, a Greener 8-bore double rifle was £20 or something, the equivalent of £5000 today I think I worked it out at.
Anyone got a catalogue?
