Some of the most beautiful work of this craftsman, and many others, are in this book “Liège Gunmakers through their Work. 1800 - 1950”.

Ghaye Lambert
And here is another very nice !!
Ghaye Lambert
GHAYE, Lambert is not registered (to my knowledge) with the Bench of test of LIEGE! He is however the inventor of a slide gun rifle towards 1865.
In 1888, a model with metal cartridge left, this weapon had a trigger guard lever kind of Winchester which made slide the gun on its table and started the movement of the extractor. Lambert GHAYE applied its system to almost all the range of the portable weapons of the time.
A gun-revolver GHAYE was thus manufactured between 1865-1870. This weapon was always with capsules, method of a little obsolete ignition at the time. The weapon did not comprise a rod and its shooting was not made that into simple action. The barrel was with six cells. This weapon of a great complexity, a lack of safety and a high price did not have hoped success. It thus acts of a very required weapon in collection.
End there is the famous riffle!!
Many thanks to Pierre Rolly for the pictures.
Another Riffle Ghaye
