Excerpt from Clay Pigeon and Wing Shooting and the Gun and How to Use It
From my acquaintance with the above class of people, I have learned that their greatest desire is to have a strong and even-shooting gun; and in order to obtain this, many of them nave spent a great deal of time and money, and, oftentimes, not only time and money have been thrown away, but their barrels have been nearly or quite ruined by the incapacity of the parties to whom they have intrusted them, and who claim to have some system of long or short choke that will make every gun shoot close and even.
In view of the above facts I have secured the services of several of the best known mechanics, who have made a life study of Reaming Gun Barrels for special purposes, and who have learned from experience that but few barrels are just alike, and can not be treated alike to accomplish the same end.
Having secured the commodious and centrally-located store, 269 South Clark Street, I have doubled my facilities, and am now prepared to adjust and ream Gun Barrels scientifically for long range, hard, close and even shooting; also to do all kinds of repairing, putting in new Barrels, Restocking, Bending Stocks and Browning, in the best manner, at reasonable prices.
If work is not satisfactory, I will make it so without extra charge.
I can furnish hundreds of references from leading Sportsmen of the country. I do all my work with skilled labor, and ream gun barrels only by steam power, with the best approved machinery known, and make a perfect taper choke, which is impossible to be done by hand.
I take this opportunity of thanking my patrons of the past year for their appreciation of my endeavors to please them by doing good work, and hope for a continuation of their patronage in the future.
