The Britannia

[Josie & John]

Here are a few more to add to the list; in no particular order:

551 422 2141 1757 3094 1257 749 1798 159 747 944 3379 558 768 2005 1147 1019 982 888 18 59 198 1437

2655 3332 48 1101 1014

I can provide specific info on any if it is important.

In the 'Sporting Guns Review' it was reported that "nearly 4000 Britannias were now in production" - slight paraphrasing but the figure is right.

Probably an over estimate, I would guess much nearer to 3,500 judging by those I have handled?

Thanks Slug Gun. I agree with your comments over total production and have a copy of the SGR report (May 1908?)you mention.


I'd be interested in cylinder markings and sight type on the low numbers (under 1000) you mention.

Kind regards,

John
