Bespoke Guns
To gain maximum performance a shooter and their gun need to be closely matched in every aspect. Adam specialises in the fitting and purchasing of truly bespoke guns. He will work closely with you, advising on exactly how a gun can be built or modified to be totally bespoke to your needs. This extends not just to woodwork dimensions, but also to weights, barrels, chokes and many other component aspects.
Whether you’re after a gun to meet specific technical requirements, a stock to match your personal dimensions, or simply something that’s unique, contact us to arrange an initial discussion. You may also like to read about Fabbri – the ultimate in bespoke guns.
