Shotgun Info Needed
Hi Guys, There is a shotgun at a local dealer made by C.E. Lewis. The makers details on the case mentions Calcutta, so I was wondering if any one has come across a gun by this maker in India. Does any one have any info on this gun? What would be fair price for this gun?

WELL im sure grumpy would have more details about this but g e lewis have now shut down and their products get good value.
Had the good fortune to see their big bore damascus guns and were estimated at 10-15000 pounds.
A 12 bore sidelock could get you around $2000 depending on the credit crunch.
Calcutta is mentioned due to the exhibition held there when it was the capital of india and shooting was the biggest social event amongst the nobility.
They never had a workshop or a shop there.
