I was apprenticed into this trade in London, working on the very best guns, we preferred blacksmiths leg vices over engineers vices, more room to work around them, we cast our "leads" every week or so and the horse was usually padded with leather . An actioner would have dozens of files and some reground with safe edges, forged into shapes for one particular job, some one would always be nicking your files so you had to keep an eye on them. Metal chiselling was used as well for some parts like the balls ( breach end of the action ) were hand chiselled.

Anyone who has special tools to work on Purdey shotguns is someone you should listen too

I'm with you, Brandon. Just about everything he covers as being important is what I use. Much wisdom there. I frequently make or modify my own tools for the job.

Great video! I love the different terms that the British use for their tools. Their names are so simple and descriptive. "Turn Screws". Of course... why didn't we think of that?!?! These two gentlemen are true treasures. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this series. I can't wait to see the next installments.

Gunslinger454 i speak as an englshman and yes we are overrun with muslims along with other immigrants due to our shitty government and the EU and PC but going back to my comment i dont see your government our country as an allie 1st reason during the troubles in northen ireland the us gov along with (most) american people funded the ira to kill not only our soldiers but innocent people across GB and NI 2nd if you look back at your history i dont think back when the decleration was signed i dont think they would of thought that we were best buddies also i dont think most americans now a days would share the same feeling as other of my country men and women do

Gunslinger454 America's perceived ambivalence on the troubles in NI certainly left a bitter taste in a lot of peoples mouths...I remember as a kid a popular rumor was the change people put in those boxes on the counter at McDonald's went straight to fund the IRA... Certainly was no big secret where the Provos where getting their beloved AR-18's from... Although by the 1980's the Americans started seriously cracking down on the weapons smuggling rings operating over there hence why the IRA switched to dealing with Gaddafi ect instead. Then by the 90's US government was really putting on the pressure to get them to the negotiating table which was a massive compromise for Irish Republican.

Nice to see this old Brummie master gunsmith talking about his craft. Birmingham was, in its day, the small arms centre of Europe... no doubt the Germans would disagree... but hey, who won the fucking war! These old craftsmen were not especially articulate - my own talented granddad was a man of very few words - they were more comfortable showing you how rather than explaining why. An apprentice would acquire knowledge and skill by watching a master at work... and maybe asking a few questions now and then.

Does anyone know what kind of brace Jack has at 9:30 in the video? It looks rather unique and doesn't appear to have a chuck like an American bit brace such as a Stanley.
@OuijaSTi
@OuijaSTi 7 лет назад
Well, I found that it is a style of brace called a Scottish or Scotch Brace, of which there are many varieties. They can be had on eBay for cheap, although they only accept the square cross-sectioned pyramidal shanks of old auger bits, but they can be modified with a plug or adapter to take modern 1/4" hex bits. I also found a beautiful English hand vise from a respected but long defunct manufacturer on eBay that is in almost new condition.

those having difficulty understanding him, it's not the mic, it's not even his age, it's the bloody Brummie accent. A strange and perplexing vocal style, even to Brits

and the fact he was suffering badly with Parkinson's Disease when these where made. He dies shortly after this was made. True gent Jack.

@bombdoc42
@bombdoc42 10 лет назад
Well my friend, you may be an engineer, but you are not a proper gunsmith. Turnscrews and pins are terms that have always been used in the gun trade. Jack is a genuine time served Brummie gunsmith with the accent and attitude to match.
