| Every 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, 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. The result: A gun that is itself a work of art, as individual as its owner.
Sixty years ago, in the great age of hand craftsmanship, English gunmaking achieved a standard of excellence which will never be surpassed. While it is the dream of many game shooters to own an English “best” shotgun, the cost of such a work of art puts it beyond reach of all but a very few.
AYA has created a range of shotguns that incorporate the very best technical features of traditional English guns, yet have the advantage of substantially lower manufacturing costs. These guns are built entirely at AYA’s factory in Eibar, the birthplace of Spain’s gunmaking industry.
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.
