A Documentary by Arun Soni , making of a Best English Gun A Detailed look into the making of a Smith & Torok Gun , a bespoke, master crafted English Sporting Shotgun.
Wonderful work! No doubt there will be people telling you you are doing it wrong, but we do not care about those loosers, as you know other London gunmakers use a kit of CNC machined part to increase their profit, but it is nice to see that you are still doing things the traditional way, long may you continue! Stay safe! Chris B.
Thank you for your comment. I am sorry you have missed the angle we were trying to convey in this video. We were giving the public an insight into how the Best Quality English Guns are still being made. We introduced ourselves by including the top names not to compare ourselves but, to highlight how by being small we can make individual guns without relying on CNC machinery. We are the only London Gun Company in recent years to have produced 32 Bore and 24 Bores for clients who want something truly bespoke.
I think you’d be surprised to find how many top quality guns are made in places that are very much like sheds. It might help to do some research on the guys in the video to find out their gunmaking history.
@@snowflakemelter1172 Funny enough I used to make them as well and I can tell you plenty of workers including myself made our pieces in garden sheds. Who did you work for then? Judging by the fact you don’t know who Smith and Torok are I’d say they you haven’t worked in the London gun trade.
@Pete Mulhearn A little tidbit of information that people like you are unaware off. When H&H introduced cnc they have never ever produced more guns than they did pre the cnc age. People like Mark Sullivan and others make their guns from forgings and are as efficient at it than people 'making' 'polishing' bits from cnc machines... go figure. That is when you compare the cnc machining time frame in it as well.
