Correction to my last post.

I must apologise for some confusion in my last post. The take over of Tipping & Lawden, which should have read 1887 was actually by P Webley & Sons, who then amalgamated with W & C Scott & Sons and Richard Ellis & Sons in 1897.

Philip Webley & Son acquired Tipping & Lawden in 1877, not 1887.

I don't know if it qualifies as reverse snobery, but last year I bought a Wm Evans 10 bore specifically because it was a Webley screw grip, not because it had Evans' name on it.
