Anthony ?????
« on: April 07, 2017, 10:48:03 PM »
I used to know a guy from around Apollo Pa names Anthony who was (is I suppose) a really fine builder.
When I first met him he was working with Ray Woodall make great CENTERMARK TULLE's and similiar smoothbores.
Later I heard he may have aquired the company?
Why I am writing is that yesterday I aquired a very nice longrifle attributed to him.  A 50 cal flinter, oc/rd barrel that was the ag prize at Old Westmoreland some years back.
I been trying to recall Anthony's last name, as I want to put it in my notes regarding this rifle.  It is purty nace and un used for the most part.
Might be Pedrazuzcky?  Pdra chinsky, ?? But I am sure it aint Smith, or Jones, or anything easy??
Thanks if anyone remembers??

You sure his name wasn't Andrew?  I seem to remember an Andrew with a Polish name starting with a P.

I believe he is Anthony Palysewki. I remember seeing a couple of pieces made by him for sale on TOW about 10 years ago.  He was working near Tarentum at the time, and specialized in French fusils. I believe I remembered hearing that he was no longer building. I'm sure there's some people from the Valley area who know him.

I met him last summer while working on his parents home. I got to talk to him for an hour about things. A nice guy. For personal reasons he stopped building.
