Is your gun future proof?
William Powell are leading the way in steel shot proof side by side shotguns.
3 June 2020
The issue of the future of lead shot and questions of “what next” are regularly discussed amongst guns. We therefore wanted to provide an insight into the work that our sister company, William Powell, has been doing in leading the way for the future of side by side shotguns.
In early 2017, William Powell endeavoured to create two new models of side by side. A boxlock and a sidelock, different in appearance, finish and cost, but with the same objective. They were to be future proof; traditional values merging with modern production techniques, and of course steel shot proofed. Three years later, following extensive design and development, they are delighted with the results.
Visit the William Powell website to find out more about how these guns were created… the ‘story so far’.
