Holland & Holland help wanted!
#110271 - 23/07/08 06:38 PM

Hi all!

Congratulations for your fantastic forum!

This is my first post here and first of all I want to apologize cause my English knowledge because I am writing you from Spain.

I´ve just bought and old Holland & Holland shotgun (1920, Badminton model) from my family and I need your help to restore the shotgun. I attach you some pics.

I need to engrave again the “Holland & Holland” and adress letters on the barrels. Because the year was manufactured, this was made in the “New Bond Street, 98” age so I need some shotgun / double barrels good pics.

Thank you very much from Spain!

Hello Alf, I am English but live in Spain, that is a very nice gun and I think
you should have it checked by an expert before you do anything to it. A good
friend in the UK is an ex Holland employee and also the pricipal AYA man in the
UK,speaks fluent Spanish and he can recommend someone in Spain to check it, would you like me to ask him ?
best, Mike

Dear Mike,

Thank you very much for your help. A good friend of mine, one of the best Spanish gunmaker, will restore the gun but of course I would like to talk to your friend! Specially as an ex Holland employee.

We want to start with the barrels restore before reblueing and this is because we need some good pics about the original legend "Holland & Holland...98, New Bond Street, London".
