Collecting
Do you have an interest in
collecting firearms and
ammunition ?
We have an enthusiastic group of members who collect a whole variety of firearms and ammunition ranging from historic items to modern semi-automatics.
The historic revolvers shown here are known as Velo-Dog’s The Velo-Dog (also known as a Revolver de Poche) was a pocket revolver originally created in France by René Galand, son of Charles-François Galand in the late 19th century as a defence for cyclists against dog attacks. The name is a compound word composed of “velocipede” and “dog”.
