HOWELL ARMS

In 1969, Kenny Howell, a tool and die maker by trade, began restoring original Colt Cartridge conversions and other antique firearms for collectors. After many years of restoring antique firearms, Kenny built his first Richards style 1851 Navy replica revolver. He then began building molds for castings needed to build a Richards/Richard-Mason style conversion. These custom made guns required a tremendous amount of hand labor. The completed firearms resulted in "Museum Quality" reproductions. The Howell Conversions were featured in numerous magazine articles, and their desirability soared.
