Holland & Holland was founded by Harris Holland (1806–96) in the year 1835.<ref name="hollandandholland.com">{{cite web|url=http://www.hollandandholland.com/history/index.htm |title=Our History &#124; Holland & Holland |publisher=Hollandandholland.com |date=2014-06-20 |accessdate=2015-03-18}}</ref>
Harris Holland was born in 1806 in London. Although accounts of his background are somewhat sketchy, it is believed that his father was an [[organ builder]], while Harris had a [[tobacco]] [[wholesale]] business in London. He was successful, and was often seen at various [[pigeon shooting|pigeon shoots]] at important London [[Club (organization)|clubs]], as well as leasing a [[grouse]] [[moorland|moor]] in [[Yorkshire]].<ref name="hollandandholland.com"/>

Having no children of his own, he took on his nephew Henry Holland as an [[apprentice]] in 1861. In 1867 Henry became a partner and in 1876 the name changed to Holland & Holland. Although Henry was a full partner, Harris kept strict control and was the only one who could sign a [[cheque]] until he died in 1896.<ref name="hollandandholland.com"/>


At first, the guns bore the inscription H.Holland, without an address, and it is probable that these were built in the trade to his design. It is not known when Harris Holland started his own manufacturing, but it is estimated to be in the 1850s. This start makes him very unusual among the London Best makers, as others such as [[James Purdey and Sons|Purdey]], [[Boss & Co.|Boss]], [[Joseph Lang and Sons|Lang]] and Lancaster had apprenticed with [[Joseph Manton]], while others such as Beesley, Grant and Atkin apprenticed with Purdey or Boss.<ref name="hollandandholland.com"/>

In 1883, Holland & Holland entered the trials organized by the magazine ''[[The Field (magazine)|The Field]]'' and won all of the [[rifle]] categories.

During the second world war Holland & Holland, along with a few other select companies, fitted the scopes to the Lee Enfield No.4T sniper rifle.

==Calibres==
Holland & Holland has created some very well known calibres. Their entire line of cartridges has been developed with [[hunting]] in mind and has been associated romantically with the last part of the golden age of [[safari]]s and dangerous [[game hunting]].{{Citation needed|date=July 2008}}


In February 2021, Holland & Holland was acquired by the [[Beretta Holding|Beretta Holding group]] from its previous owner, [[Chanel]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=Beretta Holding Acquires Holland & Holland|url=https://www.ssusa.org/articles/2021/2/1/beretta-holding-acquires-holland-holland|access-date=2021-02-02|website=ssusa.org|language=en|archive-date=2 February 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210202144842/https://www.ssusa.org/articles/2021/2/1/beretta-holding-acquires-holland-holland|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|last=B|first=Eric|date=5 February 2021|title=Beretta Holding Acquires Holland & Holland|url=https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2021/02/05/beretta-holding-aquires-holland-holland/|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210209095711/https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2021/02/05/beretta-holding-aquires-holland-holland/|archive-date=9 February 2021|website=The Firearm Blog}}</ref>
These calibres are:
* .297/250 Rook: a black powder round that fires a 56 grain lead bullet
* [[.240 Apex]]: introduced 1920, known also as .240 Belted Nitro Express and the .240 Magnum Rimless. Used for deer and plainsgame with a .245 bullet weighing 100 grains
* [[.240 Flanged Nitro Express]]: a variation of the [[.240 Apex]] created for the safari double rifles and intended for medium size game.
* [[.244 H&H Magnum]]: introduced 1955, as a cartridge suitable for long range deer hunting in Scottish Highlands. Based on the extremely successful .375 H&H but with .245 bullet with a weight of 100 grains
* [[.275 H&H Magnum|.275 H&H Belted Magnum]]: introduced in 1912 and based on the 375 H&H case shortened to 2.5" with a 7&nbsp;mm 140&ndash;175 grain bullet. This cartridge was the inspiration for a number of 7&nbsp;mm Magnum designs from other manufacturers and originally used cordite as propellant powder. The flanged version of this cartridge was known as the 7mm H&H flanged.
* [[.300 H&H Magnum]]: second most popular calibre invented by Holland & Holland, was introduced in 1925. It is meant to tackle large plains game, particularly African like [[zebra]], [[giraffes]] or heavy [[antelope]]s but also a favourite of North American [[moose]] and [[elk]] hunters. While not as popular, it is fairly similar to [[.300 Winchester Magnum]] over which the .300 H&H Magnum may have an advantage when loaded with bullets of 220 grains or heavier. The first .300 H&H Magnum rifle recorded in the Holland & Holland Number Books was serial number 30494, tested on 1 October 1926.<ref>Dallas, Donald (2003, Holland & Holland "The Royal" Gunmaker, p. 148–149. ISBN 1-57157-314-3.</ref> When the .300 H&H Magnum was introduced it was branded as the "Super-Thirty"<ref>Dallas, Donald (2003, Holland & Holland 'The Royal' Gunmaker, Appendix 6. ISBN 1-57157-314-3.</ref>
* [[.30 "Super" Flanged]] or .300 H&H Flanged: a flanged version of the .300 H&H Magnum cartridge for use in breech loading and double rifles. It has almost the same specifications, and nearly the same performance, as the [[.300 H&H Magnum]].
* [[.400/375 Belted Nitro Express]]: introduced in 1905.
* [[.375 H&H Magnum]] or 375 H&H: the most popular [[caliber|calibre]] invented by Holland & Holland, and was introduced in 1912 as a Nitro Express [[Cartridge (firearms)|cartridge]] using [[cordite]], but worked its way into becoming also the world's most popular [[safari]] calibre to date, due to its versatility. Bullet has a 9.5&nbsp;mm diameter, and weighs between {{convert|235|and|300|gr|1}}. While a medium-bore cartridge that some consider too big for medium game and too small for big or dangerous game, the .375 H&H has nonetheless become the official minimum cartridge for hunting dangerous game throughout much of [[Africa]]. While big by modern standards, it remains a popular cartridge for [[Canada|Canadian]] and [[Alaska]]n bears, seeing heavy use by outfitters and professional hunters.
* [[.375 Flanged Nitro Express]]: a cartridge for use in breech loading and double rifles and therefore popular in Africa, but in the past was considered an effective tiger cartridge. It has almost the same specifications as the [[.375 H&H Magnum]].
* .375 2.5" H&H veloplex
* [[.400 H&H Magnum]]: a recent cartridge introduced in 2003, based on the .375 H&H Magnum case and using a 400 grain bullet at 2,300 feet per second. The [[.400 H&H Magnum]] is designed for use in bolt action rifles and to carry the muzzle energy of the .375 H&H Magnum out 100 yards.<ref name="ReferenceC">Van Der Walt, Pierre, "Holland's Latest Cartridges" in Rowland Ward Field Sportsman, October 2008</ref>
* .400/375 H&H
* [[.465 H&H Magnum]]: introduced in 2003, is a modern big bore cartridge from Holland & Holland based on the 460 Weatherby case. This cartridge was created to be used for big or dangerous game hunting, following the safari tradition of the brand. The .465 H&H Magnum is designed for use in bolt action rifles and to carry the muzzle energy of the .375 H&H Magnum out 200 yards and, in so doing, carries the muzzle energy of the .400 H&H Magnum out 100 yards.<ref name="ReferenceC"/>
* [[.500/450 Nitro Express]]: created in the late 1890s, using the .500 Black Powder Express case necked down to emulate the .450 Nitro Express performance with lower chamber pressure and slightly higher velocity. Due to its low pressure and considerable power it was used almost exclusively to hunt dangerous game in the tropical colonies of the former British Empire, like East Africa or India.
* [[.500/465 Nitro Express]]: a development of the .500/450 Nitro Express when the .45 calibre was banned from Sudan and India in 1907 by the British Government. It is essentially the older cartridge necked up to accept a larger calibre bullet, and delivers the same level of performance. For many years it was the most common chambering for heavy double rifles after the .470 Nitro Express, and it continues to be the standard caliber for H&H doubles.
* [[.577 Nitro Express]]: the standard caliber of professional ivory hunters in the 19th and early 20th centuries.
* [[.600 Nitro Express]]: the caliber used during the heyday of African ivory hunting
* [[.700 Nitro Express]]: the client in this case reputedly felt that if he could not have a .600 that was fine, he would have a .700.
* [[Paradox gun|12 bore Paradox]]. A massive 740 grain lead bullet. Originally it was available in the large 4, 8, and 10 bores along with 12, 16, 20, and 28 bores.

History

[edit]

Holland & Holland was founded by Harris Holland (1806–1896) in 1835.[2]

Portrait of Harris Holland

Harris Holland was born in 1806 in London. Although accounts of his background are somewhat sketchy, it is believed that his father was an organ builder, while Harris had a tobacco wholesale business in London. He was successful, and was often seen at various pigeon shoots at important London clubs, as well as leasing a grouse moor in Yorkshire.[2]

Having no children of his own, he took on his nephew Henry Holland as an apprentice in 1861. In 1867 Henry became a partner and in 1876 the name changed to Holland & Holland. Although Henry was a full partner, Harris kept strict control and was the only one who could sign a cheque until he died in 1896.[2]

At first, the guns bore the inscription H.Holland, without an address, and it is probable that these were built in the trade to his design. It is not known when Harris Holland started his own manufacturing, but it is estimated to be in the 1850s. This start makes him very unusual among the London Best makers, as others such as Purdey, Boss, Lang and Lancaster had apprenticed with Joseph Manton, while others such as Beesley, Grant and Atkin apprenticed with Purdey or Boss.[2]

In 1883, Holland & Holland entered the trials organized by the magazine The Field and won all of the rifle categories. This set a new standard of excellence for the competition among English gunmakers. In 1885, patents were granted to Holland & Holland for their Paradox gun, a shotgun with rifling in the front two inches of the barrel.[3]

In 1908, they patented the detachable lock feature with a small lever, for sidelock shotguns. The last major development in the evolution of the sidelock side-by-side gun occurred in 1922, when the H&H assisted-opening mechanism was patented. This gun, the self-opening Royal side-by-side, has been hugely influential in gun-making throughout the world.[3]

In the period after World War II under the leadership of new owner and Managing Director Malcolm Lyell, the company made sorties to India, where guns from the famous collections of the princes and maharajahs were bought back, developing an important market for second-hand pieces. In 1989, all remaining shares in H&H were bought by the French luxury group Chanel. Since then, the factory building, in use since 1898, has been extensively renovated and equipped with modern technology. Guns such as the Royal over & under or side-by-side double-barreled shotguns were improved and reintroduced, and are currently available from 4 bore to .360 inch. A hand-built gun from H&H can cost around £60,000 for a shotgun and close to £100,000 for some rifles, with prices roughly doubling with luxury engraving, and there is a waiting period of 2–3 years between ordering and delivery.[4]

In the 1990s, Holland & Holland started a major expansion programme. The company has a gunroom in Dallas and formerly had additional locations. Its gun room in New York City closed in 2017. Its Moscow gun room closed at some point prior to 2024.[5] The company's London flagship store on Bruton Street has been completely renovated and expanded.[4]

In February 2021, Holland & Holland was acquired by the Beretta Holding group from its previous owner, Chanel.[6][7]
