G. Defourny Imperal Premier

Many Liege makers rivaled the quality of 'Best' London guns. The average Belgian couldn't afford their own guns, and most were made for export. Best British guns were made for the aristocratic wealthy, and images of Gentlemen in breaks and tweeds, and a general love of all things Anglophile made people assume the all other guns were less than the British side lock. Much of this is why ownership of the British names have changed hands and profits were meager at best.
