S2 - Sold as a Section 2 Firearm under the 1968 Firearms Act. Provenance: The makers have kindly confirmed that this gun was completed 27th July 1911 for Colonel W.W. Gray. The vendor has informed us that this gun was handed down to Brigadier Wingate Gray by his father, Col. W.S Wingate Gray. Brigadier Walter Michael "Mike" Wingate Gray O.B.E, M.C & BAR (1921 - 1995) was born into a military family and was educated at Wellington College, Berkshire. He was commissioned into the Black Watch in 1941. Brigadier Wingate Gray served in North Africa in all the Black Watch's battles from Alamein, through North Africa, Sicily and North West Europe. During this time he won the Military Cross twice. The first was in Gerbini, Sicily, where, with his troops under heavy concentrated fire he charged a German machine-gun post standing in a Bren Gun carrier, firing from the shoulder. The second was in October, 1944, during the Normandy landings at Dunkirk, where he negotiated a ceasefire between the British, Germans, and French to enable some 20,000 civilians and German wounded to be evacuated. After the war he continued with the Black Watch, serving in Germany and British Guyana as well as holding staff posts, one of which was on the staff of Bernard Fergusson during the Suez Crisis of 1956. In 1963 the massed band of the Black Watch were taken on a tour of the United States of America by Wingate Gray, and they played on the White House lawn on the 13th November 1963 at the request of John F. Kennedy, just 9 days before the Kennedy assassination. The book, JFK's Last Hundred Days, by Thurston Clarke, states that Brigadier Michael Wingate Gray presented Kennedy with a ceremonial dirk and told him of the regiment's motto: "No-one wounds us with impunity". Kennedy replied: "I think that is a very good motto for some of the rest of us." The Black Watch pipers were requested to play at Kennedy's funeral by Jackie Kennedy. On return from America, he started his service with the SAS, commanding the regiment from 1964 to 1967 with squadrons deployed in Borneo, Aden, and Radfan. For this he was awarded the OBE. He concluded his military career as military attache in Paris after a tour as the deputy fortress commander of Gibraltar. On his retirement he dabbled in boat-building and for a time worked for security firms. But his real passion was sailing. For many years he kept a boat in the Mediterranean and he knew all the best watering-holes around its rim. He was also involved with Sir Ranulph Fiennes' expeditions in Greenland and the North Pole in 1976/78, and the Transglobe expedition in 1979/82. Brigadier Wingate Gray is mentioned in the books "To The Ends of the Earth", and "Mad, Bad and Dangerous to Know", by Sir Ranulph Fiennes. As written in his Obituary, Brigadier Wingate Gray led with style, totally unpompously, and by example. He loved a party and alcohol appeared to have no effect on him. His enormous popularity won him many friends from all walks of life.
