"His fascination with the legendary Midland Gun Street factory to buy a gun. Four years later he had a shotgun built by this company to his own specifications. From then on he became an avid collector of Midland guns and cartridges and in 2016 he had the opportunity to register himself as the owner of the Midland Gun Company name.
