6/1/2023 0 Comments Aya shotgun serial numbers![]() to Britain in the late fifties so, a long-standing favourite with shooters here, hence the number and popularity. I picked up this AYA Yeoman from Norman Clarks gunsmiths, from a retired gentleman who had this, a Webley Mod 700 and Webley 410 bolt action, all of them classics in their own right. It is a testament to the build quality today that so many Yeomans are still going strong, but you have to check on the overall integrity of each gun, as some were just a workhorse and have had a hard life administered to their insides and out. This meant that, like myself, you could buy a real AYA and pretend it was a No 2 grade for only £38! Why? It’s because AYA were a very well-respected company, producing side by side shotguns from Spain and the Yeoman was their entry level gun. ![]() Its one of those shotguns that was the workhorse of practically all shooting families or some one knew someone who had one. ![]() Mention the name AYA Yeoman to shooters of my generation and watch their eyes widen and then chuckle.
