The info from Mr. Price ( an amazing builder, http://www.davidpriceflintlocks.com )


Dave Brooks originally lived in Mass. where he worked for Sylvania.* From what I understand, he was the one that invented the flash cube for Sylvania.* Some of you young folks won't know what that was.* It was basically a four sided flash bulb for taking pictures in low light.* He* was a bit of a genious and a wonderful macheniest* After he retired he moved to N.H. and built many guns including an* exact copy of a gatlin gun which I had the opportunity to fire at Fort Ticonderoga in the mid 60s.* He built many* side hammer rifles and pistols and his work was second to none.* A* friend of mine just picked up a 32 cal. rifle that he built which still shoots great.

He was a very nice person that everyone liked.
