This is an interesting video showing demonstration of a try gun and gun fitting technique.

Nice video Bespoke.
Looks old though. I wonder which year it was recorded.
Viks . Youve been to a number of gun makers in the UK.
Our man mentions a custom made gun costing a thousand pounds in the video. How much do you think it would cost today?

Prashant,

The price of guns mentioned in the video, I would say that this video was made in early 60’s .

Prashant,

That video is quote old and from a different time. Custom guns in UK can cost anything from £3000 to sky is the limit figures.

Now before anyone jumps on the £3K figure, AA Brown& Sons of Birmingham offers customised Berettas from that figure and above. They offer complete customisation of Berettas to Customer specifications and they cost just a fraction of completely bespoke guns. The top of the specification Brown- Beretta costs from £10,000. I would say a very nice option.

Their own hand-built bespoke guns are a different matter.They cost over £35,000.

Check their website http://www.doubleguns.co.uk/aabrown/AAB.htm

Well respected and talented.Their work is second to none, according to those who have worked with them or had work done by them.

Gun fitting is not very expensive if you do not go to the big names.

Vikram
