Los Angeles Revolver Club. 
Los Angeles, Cal., Aug. 31.—On Sunday, Aug. 27, the 
ten-man team representing the Los Angeles Revolver 
Club met, for the second time, the team from the 
Golden Gate Club of San Francisco, in a telegraphic 
match. The conditions were five men to use revolvers 
and five pistols, each man to shoot 50 shots at 50yds., 
tinder U. S. R. A. rules. The first match with this 
club was so close that J. B. Crabtree was called upon 
to decide it. He made it Golden Gate 4315 to Los 
Angeles 4311. On last Sunday the Angel City boys evened 
up by making 4334 to 4295 for Golden Gate. When it 
comes to shooting off the tie in the near future there 
will be some good work done on each side, as it will 
give the winning team the technical right to claim the 
ten-man team championship of the United States. Then, 
too, the honor of the club is at stake, which, to some, is 
of greater importance. 
The Los Angeles Revolver Club has been trying to 
get in touch with some Eastern club, with a view to get¬ 
ting up some eight or ten man team matches. Thus 
far, we have had but one response. However, we are 
still open for one or two engagements, and hope that 
the Eastern brethren will speak up. We would rather 
fight and get licked than not fight at all. The match 
scores follow;

shot at Armbruster’s Park, Greenville, N. J., Sept. 14-16. 
Dayton (Ohio) Sharpshooters. 
At the August shoot for the club’s membership cup 
the attendance was lighter than usual, due to the fact 
that the event was not announced beforehand, no off¬ 
hand matches were arranged, and notices were not sent 
to the many riflemen of the surrounding towns, as is 
usually done, with good results. The cup match was 
won by Adolph Schwind on a score of 111, Gus Sander, 
Sr., second with 100. Three free-for-all matches were 
run off. B. TIarmon and A. Schwind and Gus Sander, 
Sr. won on scores of 66, 62 and 63 respectively. Scores: 
Cup contest, 5 shots, 200yds., muzz.e rest, possible 120, 
open to members only: Adolph Schwind 111, Gus San¬ 
der, Sr., 100, D. Bergk 98, J. Vv einstein 97, C. R. Decker 
96, Chas. Lang 93, B. Harmon 90, Chas. Sander 87. 
Free-for-all, 3 shots, 200yds., muzzle rest, possible 72: 
B. Harmon 66; Chas. Lang 63; Gus Sander 62, 63; A. 
Schwind 62, 59; J. Weinstein 60; G. R. Decker 59, 61. 
GUNS IN BRITAIN. 
Consul Albert Halstead, of Birmingham, 
England, says that there appears to be an in¬ 
crease in the demand which has been noticed for 
some years in the Birmingham district for the 
stamping upon every foreign gun proved in the 
United Kingdom of a special mark showing it 
was made abroad. This is on the ground that 
the foreign buyers are under the impression that 
the Birmingham or London proof mark denotes 
English manufacture. The Birmingham manu¬ 
facturers of guns, while approving of the laws 
requiring guns intended for use in England to 
be proved at the Birmingham or London proof 
houses, regard the fact that the proof houses 
are open to foreign makers without any distin¬ 
guishing mark being affixed to show whether the 
gun is of British or foreign make as a serious 
interference with their own trade. 
The Sporting Goods Review and the Gun- 
maker recently stated that clay pigeon shooting 
has had an increase of popularity, and that while 
in the past the manufacture of clay pigeons 
promised to be an important local industry, the 
Americans have almost entirely captured the 
trade. It is suggested that “before long local 
ingenuity may introduce some improvements into 
the manufacture which should tend to bring 
back at least some of this trade to Birmingham." 
The manufacture of pigeon guns appears to be 
somewhat handicapped by the large number of 
second hand guns coming into the market. This 
is explained on the ground that though the sport 
shows an increasing tendency, many in time lose 
their enthusiasm and discard their pigeon guns. 
But it would seem that the practice of clay pigeon 
shooting helps manufacturers of other kinds of 
sporting guns, because it is said that many of 
those who give up trap shooting do so to try 
their skill in field sport.
