Nothing wrong with my email addresses.
Have you tried my other one?
Definitely something not compatible.
Don't you have a computer ... to save the images in your computer files and then send them over as 'normal' pictures?
Meanhwile i am sending a test message to your email address.

Hello:

Can not add anything, the pictures - amazing - speak for themselves. Conservation is excellent. A poor observation, is that the locks are "the three fashions" (tres modas) variant.

Affectionately. Fernando K

Magnificent.
It would make the envy of any museum, including the one from Eibar .
I am trying to get some data on Joseph Aguirre, from this museum directory.

Hello

AGUIRRE, Jose (Joseph)

Master gunsmith Eibar, author of a custom gun, manufactured to Don Gabriel de Mendizabal, located in the Museum of Madrid Lazaro Galdeano.
There are references about him in the years 1800 to 1821, collected by NEW STOCKEL

In "Synthesis Basque historic armory" of Ramiro Larranaga página118.

Affectionately. Fernando K

Smile Joseph Aguirre 1811

Hello fernando k. Thanks for that information , I do not have copies of these to look up , the Aguirre double gun is 48 3/4 " long with 32 3/4" barrels and is half stocked , the ramrod passes right through from the forend and between the locks touching the buttcap , possible because of the stronger stock and external mainsprings and the minimal stock removal compared to an English double gun , hoping to do some research on this gun including the possible link with aya guns which includes the Aguirre name ( Aguirre y Arazabal ) the gun has definitely survived in a great condition , I have not stripped it down yet or cleaned it at all . Best regards. Shinyblades
