The beauty and perfection of Holland & Holland
This fascinating Youtube video appears to be a condensed edit of a longer documentary or promotional video about legendary gun maker Holland & Holland. It shows the guns being made, tested, sighted and regulated. Regulation refers to the barrel alignment process. Both barrels of a double barrel rifle should impact at the same point. The image above shows two barrels being re-soldered together after an adjustment to their alignment.

Many thanks to Jay for the tip.
I founded TFB in 2007 and over 10 years worked tirelessly, with the help of my team, to build it up into the largest gun blog online. I retired as Editor in Chief in 2017. During my decade at TFB I was fortunate to work with the most amazing talented writers and genuinely good people!
