vain against hostile tariffs until some trusty 
weapon is put into their hands to fight with, 
equal to the weapons with which foreign nations 
are defeating their efforts. 
Unlike most weapons of foreign manufacture, 
English-made guns in these days are so well 
/}and strongly built and so finely finished, that 
| they last for a lifetime, and are serviceable until 
|}some change in construction becomes popular 
with shooters, justifying them in ordering new 
jweapons. There has been no such material 
change in construction, however, within the 
last quarter of a century as could necessitate the 
|buying from that cause alone of new weapons, 
|the old ones shooting as well as ever after 
|twenty or thirty years’ service, with due care in 
|use and storage. The only modern improve- 
}ment in shotguns has been the invention of the 
single-trigger, and as that improvement can be 
met by the conversion from two triggers to 
|one at comparatively small outlay, the old guns 
have in many cases been altered to single- 
triggers, still continuing in use from the _ be- 
|ginning to the end of each successive shooting 
season. The guns are so good; in fact, where 
\long prices were originally paid, that it is im- 
possible to wear them out, however hard may 
be the work they are annually called upon to 
periorm. This also, as well as the alteration in 
the system of shooting, is responsible more or 
less for the smaller business than there once 
was in the best quality of shotguns, for which 
English makers have so long been recognized 
as having no superiors in manufacture in the 
;whole world. Modern guns of good quality, 
in short, are now so well made, so strongly, so 
|symmetrically built and well balanced, with the 
;metal so well distributed where it is required,
