Watts Bros Ltd
1969-1999
              18 Upper Ormond Quay

This company was founded by Paddy, Johnny and Billy Watts at 4 Upper Abbey Street in 1940.
In 1942 they gained their full Firearms Dealer Licence. Paddy and Johnny having been associated with Larry "Old Pops" Keegan (Gunmakers)  at 3 Inns Quay from the 1920's.
Please refer to our "Older Posts"with respect to this company.

Watts Bros were one of the last "old time" gunsmiths to finish trading in central Dublin and I have fond memories visiting this shop.

                     We are always interested in any material related to this company.
