Guest Macnas Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Midland Gun Co. were a Birmingham maker, first recorded in Bath street in 1889. They were a large company, having a few premises in the Bath street area, also in Price st, Bailey st, and Whittall st. They remained trading as Midland Gun Co. until 1963. The works and remaining stock were amalgamated thereafter with Parker Hale, who had taken the business over earlier in 1952. Quote Link to post
