Craig: Folsom did market name, and tradename, English and Belgian guns.

1890



And also the Folsom “Parker Trap Gun”



But Folsom purchased Crescent Fire Arms in 1893 and the vast majority of tradename guns thereafter were of Crescent manufacture.

"We have been manufacturing Crescent guns for over 40 years..." c. 1925
Well not quite 40 years; The Crescent Fire Arms Co. was incorporated in Connecticut on March 4, 1892.
