Wogdon & Barton

s. The name Wogdon became synonymous with duelling, to the extent that duels in England were sometimes referred to as "a Wogdon affair".

Wogdon & Barton made the pistols used in the infamous Burr-Hamilton duel, which were later found to have concealed hair triggers, designed to give the person using them an advantage over their opponent.
