Default Researching British Guns

Is there a way to research British doubles and get something similar to a PGCA research letter? Particularly interested in Greener and W & C Scott.

Any help appreciated

Graham Greener will reply to requests for information on his guns by email. Not sure about Scott.

Mills,

I asked a question over on the Internetgunclub site to see if they know who owns the W&C Scott records. This thread gives a good thumbnail history on W&C Scott. They do say the records prior to 1912 may not exist.

Mills,

Looks like Gallyon and Sons have some of the records.
