Pelle,

Heard from Grumpy.

Apart from the fact that they were a Birmingham trade makers, this firm and Holloway and Naughton, which is much better known, had a connection. Check this link.

http://www.hollowaynaughton.co.uk/hollo ... istory.php

You can email them and find out if they can provide you any records re your gun. Possible
