" The Keeper's Gun," hammerless—Price 12ge. Testimonials. From Lord Fitzroy Somerset, Badminton, Chippenham, July 19,1881. " Lord Fitzroy Somerset thinks it may interest Messrs Bland to know that yesterday one of the keepers was fawn shooting with the 20-bore (' New Model Keeper's Gun') and No. 3 shot, when he killed two fawns that were running together as dead as a hammer at fully 70 yards, killing both with one barrel, and securing a third at the same range." From J. W. Whittall, Esq., Constantinople, Feb. 8, 1882. " . . . I may further say that I have now used your 12-bore New Model Keeper's Gun two years, and fired several thousand cartridges out of it, and find it in every respect fully equal to guns which I have bought from London firms for sixty guineas. I must add that my friend M. Alphonse Crepin, for whom I bought a similar gun to my own, confirms my verdict." From T. Preston Battersby, Lieutenant 8.A., F.8.A.5., May 1,1882. " I have much pleasure in stating my satisfaction with the 10-bore„New Model Keeper's Gun, purchased from you last year. I have found the shooting admirable, and the workmanship and action of the gun thoroughly fitted to stand hard work, of which I gave it a good deal." From Lieutenant V. T. Garland, Ist W.I. Begt., Sierra Leone, Dec. 7,1882. "... I may mention that I have for the last five years shot with one of your 'Keeper's' C.F. Guns constantly, both at Home and abroad. Except in appearance it is as good and as tight now as it was when new. Only a few days ago I shot with it a full-grown 'harness antelope,' with No. 6 shot. I got him behind the shoulder, and he didn't run a yard afterwards." From Charles If. Kenyon, Esq., Moreton, Oswestry, Salop, Jan. 10,1883. " I have used a ' Keeper's ' Gun of your make in South America for the two last years, and I don't believe any man could have a better. I have shot with it more than 2000 wild duck, and am sure no 50-guinea gun could have done better, many not as well. I have killed wild geese and swans with it at tremendous distance." Caution.—ln consequence of the unfair competition to which they have been subjected, and the way in which other makers have sold inferior arms under the name of " The Keeper's Gun," originally introduced into the trade by their Fum, Messrs Bland have been obliged in self-protection to adopt a trade mark for their " Keeper's " Guns, and for the future no "Keeper's" Gun will be issued by them without having .the trade mark on the heelplate. The wording will vary so as to indicate the character of the Gun, whether a "Keeper's," a " Keeper's " New Model, or a "Keeper's" Hammerless, but in each case the trade mark wiU be the figure of a Keeper with his gun under his arm, and accompanied by his dog, in a circle, with the words "The Keeper's Gun." "THE CAPE GUN," A Eifle and Shot Gun Combined. The right barrel, being for shot, is a 12-cylinder bore; the left is 577*450 with Henri rifling, using the Government Boxer cartridge; it is sighted up to 300 yards; weight, 91b. Price, 16 Guineas. The "Field," of Oct. 13,1877, says of the "Cape Gun" :—"Selecting one at random from stock, we tried the rifted barrel, first at 70, and afterwards at 100 yards, from an ordinary rest, and were able to put ball upon ball at both distances, so that the truth of its shooting from the rifled barrel is good enough for any purpose, and, indeed, cannot be excelled even by the most expensive rifle in the market." EXPBESS DOUBLE BIFLES. •360, -400, '450, -500, and '577 bores. 20 Guineas. Testimonials. From H. Jones Bateman, Esq., Kheri, Oudh, India, August 8,1879: " I have every reason to be perfectly satisfied with the -500 Express you sold me three years ago. It compares favourably with rifles costing double the price." From T. Foljambe Hall, Esq., Masonic Hotel, Grahamstown, South Africa, May 18, 1882-.—" l have delayed hitherto in writing to you about my rifle, as I wished to give it a thorough trial. I have now done so, and can truly say that it has more than fulfilled my utmost expectations. At all ranges I have found it most accurate; the action has withstood every test of weather, and the workmanship leaves nothing to be desired." From B. Percy Pinder, Esq., Indian Forest Department, Nov. 8, 1882:—" My rifle, C.F,, -500 Express, built by you, is a magnificent weapon j indeed, I never used one that I like so well."
