Synopsis

The best description ever of the process of making a best grade English gun.

From the Publisher

Robert Braden and Cyril Adams have been shooting fine English shotguns for decades all over the world, and they are unashamed in their preference for an English-made shotgun. In this book they give the most complete description ever of the p rocess of making a best-grade English gun from a lump of steel and a walnut tree trunk. Never before has this production process been described with such clarity, giving the reader a total understanding of what goes into such guns and why they are so exp ensive. The second section of the book contains the most practical advice on consistent field shooting with a double shotgun. In addition, professional tips are provided on choke, shot pattern, shooting distance, and other technical aspects. A superb s hotgun and shooting book that is a must for all who own and shoot such a weapon. Foreword by Bob Brister. This book has received some of the best reviews ever of any of our publications. In addition, it was selected as one of the ten best sporting book s of 1996 by Sports Afield!
