Address on my .500- 3" BPE
Only information I have been able to find is that they were in business 1889-96.
Anyone have anything else on this company?
Rifle is typical hammer gun with Jones lever and express sights to 300 yds. Nice wood but only border engraving. Henry Rifling A&T 5571 and 5572 on the barrels and 2385 on the forend lug. Proof marks and 39 on barrel lump.
I have had the gun over 40 years and the first cases I had were made by putting a rim on .460 Weatherby brass and expanding them out to take the .512 bullet. Aftermarket cases were not available at that time. Dave
