In 1902 they joined with Alexander Henry but both operated under their own names. The firm in modern times was run by Sandy Martin, but in 1965 it was sold to John Dickson & Son Ltd. One of their special guns was the Martin Rib-Less game gun. The Martin name lives on to this day at dicksonandmacnaughton. SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes |
