The finest shotgun and rifle barrels made by award-winning master craftsmen.
Barrels are the business end of a gun; however exquisite the stock or charming the engraving, only expertly made and regulated barrels will put a true aim bang on target. The shaving of as little as a thousandth of an inch by a master barrel maker is what delivers a perfect killing pattern.
Founded in 1985, Bill Blacker & Sons makes barrels by hand for the finest shotguns and rifles, using the best of traditional methods combined with state-of-the-art precision machinery to ensure that our gun barrels perform as well as they look. From .410 shotguns to .600 double rifles, the firm has unrivalled experience of every best gunmaker, and every gauge and calibre. Bill Blacker & Sons make a number of new Damascus barrels every year, one of the few craftsmen left in the gun trade capable of doing so.
From building new chopper lump barrels for shotguns and double rifles, to barrel sleeving and barrel repairs, Bill Blacker & Sons can give your weapon of choice a lifetime of reliable service, with the confidence and satisfaction that comes from a bespoke service and true expertise. We know how important your gun is to you and we work tirelessly to ensure your satisfaction with the end result.
In addition to creating new and replacement barrels for discerning private customers from across the world, the firm has undertaken trade work for Holland & Holland, John Rigby & Co, James Purdey & Sons, Boss & Co, Atkin Grant Lang, John Dickson & Son and Westley Richards to name but a few.
