Our secret A work of art does not just happen. First, an idea is born in the mind of the artist. This idea takes a physical form through a combination of experience, artistry and inspiration. The joy of the discerning owner is in appreciating the skill wich has created the masterpiece he now possesses. This has always been true of AYA shotguns. AYA shotguns, built in Eibar, the birthplace of Spanish gunmaking, are designed for those who know to value and distinguish genuine quality. – 47 – Model Nº 1 and Model Nº 2 Round Action Making an AYA
Making an AYA E very AYA is made by hand – each part carefully fitted to every other part, filed to minute tolerances the “thickness of a layer of smoke.” The gunmaker smokes the steel, fits the parts, then removes metal one file stroke at a time until the two parts fit as one. Gradually, the steel parts are brought together into one perfect whole: barrels, – 48 – frame, trigger guard, forend. The fine walnut stock and forend are carefully shaped and inletted at the hands of our master stockers. Finally, the steel is engraved using the most traditional tools of the artist.
