Desiriog Floe Eoglish Goos 
Bmilt to Order. 
For many years past onr specialty has been 
bnilding FINE GUNS to the order of individ- 
ual sportsmen. 
The difficulty of procuring a gun ready made that will suit the 
figure, and at the same time meet all the other rcqniremcnts of 
the sportsman as in Qauqe., Length,, Bmd, i^tyUy Shooting 
Powers., and Price, causes the majority of first class shots to have 
their guns built to #p€rta/ order. The great drawback heretofore 
to this method of procuring a FINE GUN has been the extrava- 
gant and fancy prices charged for such work. To overcome this 
difficulty we have established a house in New York, thus enabling 
sportsmen to trade direct with the gun maker. We are now pre- 
pared to accept from sportsmen orders to build FINE GUNS of 
any desired measurement, at our lUt prices, which we forward with 
illustrated description of our guns on application.

These Sfcellf with slotted heads are so constructed as to enable 
sportsmen ea.Mly to remove the exploded caps frf)m the outside with 
any pointed in'>trnment— even a Common pocket knife will do the 
work successfully. Once seen SjiorUinen will use no other shell, as 
it obAiates all trouble with broken down anvils, broken points in 
cap ejectors, holes punched through caps, screw head shells that 
corrode and cannot be unscrewed after a little use. In a word, it will 
snpercede all other shells now in nse.
