Hello

Can anyone point me somewhere to find information on build dates and so forth for Joseph Harkom & Sons 12 bore double rifles?

Any other information on HArkom would be appreciated.

Cheers

Joseph Harkom, Edinburgh, founded 1837. Since 1870 "& Son" (Joseph Mark Harkom). 1923 taken over by Mortimer, who in turn amalgameted with Dickson & son in 1938.

Dickson's would be my first try. You may also drop Graham MacKinley in Scotland a line, he may know how to find something.
