NB: The spelling of Vickars/Vickers differed in the Dublin trades directories. The Thoms directory of 1822 (above) states "Vickars". However, the Pigot's & Co directory of 1824 uses "Vickers". The engraver on the above pistol has chosen "Vickers". The spelling of many gunmakers names vary. Quite a common occurrence. One of the above is right!!
Please refer to our "Older Post" with regard to this gunmaker. Dated 17/9/2015.
