W.W. Greener, Birmingham

The place of the W.W. Greener company in the history of the double barrel shotgun was secured by two accomplishments. The first was what became known as the Greener cross-bolt, invented in 1867 and improved in 1873. It contributed to the solution of the major problem with break-action cartridge shotguns at the time. When the blackpowder in a cartridge exploded, it created an outward force in all directions. Unless constrained, the force going backward along the axis of the gun could push the rear of the metal cartridge against the face of the receiver with enough force to damage the gun. The double-underbolt patented by James Purdey 1863 dramatically reduced this risk. The doll’s-head top-rib extension, patented by the Westley Richards company in 1862, limited lateral movement. The Greener cross-bolt kept barrels from moving upward. When mated with the Purdey and Westley Richards inventions, the receiver and barrels were secured at three points. Europe’s best gunmakers licensed the three inventions, and the triple-bolt locking system became the industry standard. For marketing reasons, W.W. Greener labeled the triple-bolt system used on its guns as the “Treble Wedge Fast.”

The second great accomplishment was the introduction of choke bores. The concept had been around for decades, however, W.W. Greener was the first company to develop a method for choke boring that worked on an industrial scale, and its engineers designed the machines to bore chokes precisely and economically.
