In an exciting development from the 2025 Ragley Hall Game Fair, the renowned Spanish gunmaker AYA (Aguirre y Aranzabal) has announced the appointment of Manor & Co Gun and Rifle Makers as the official UK importers and distributors of AYA fine guns. This announcement comes at a momentous time as AYA proudly celebrates its 110th anniversary – a milestone that speaks volumes of its enduring heritage and commitment to excellence in the art of gunmaking.
For British gun dealers, collectors and field sports enthusiasts, this partnership brings not only easier access to AYA shotguns but also a new benchmark in after-sales service and support through Manor & Co.
AYA is globally recognised for producing exquisite sidelock ejector shotguns, each handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail in the Basque region of Spain. For over a century, the brand has upheld its reputation for combining traditional artisan techniques with precise engineering.
Manor & Co, with its longstanding expertise in British gunmaking, shares a similar ethos – valuing craft, heritage and family legacy. With this new partnership, they will now be responsible not just for importation but also for aftermarket care, servicing and warranties of AYA guns sold in the UK.
Together, Manor & Co. and AYA form a symbiotic relationship reminiscent of the finest matched pairs – elegant, precise and built to last generations.
To mark this significant milestone, a special celebratory offer has been launched:
The first 10 customers will be eligible to purchase exclusive AYA special edition guns at discounted rates, each accompanied by a limited-edition certificate commemorating 110 years of AYA’s gunmaking legacy.
This is a rare opportunity for UK buyers to own a piece of shooting history – a timeless heirloom that blends Spanish elegance with British sporting tradition.

For generations, AYA guns have been a staple on British shooting estates. From starter guns for juniors to fine-matched pairs for seasoned game shooters, the brand appeals to a broad spectrum of shooters who value:
Flawless sidelock craftsmanship
Superior walnut stocks and English-style finish
Exceptional balance and handling in the field
A strong tradition of reliability and durability
With models like the AYA No. 2 and No. 4 remaining iconic in the UK market, this new distribution channel ensures the legacy continues with more reach and better support than ever before.
Whether you're a collector, a shooting enthusiast or a trade dealer, the appointment of Manor & Co. opens new opportunities:
Easier sourcing of AYA shotguns from a trusted UK distributor
Improved servicing and warranty support locally
Greater access to special editions and custom options for British shooters
Manor & Co’s presence at leading field sports events and their deep roots in British shooting circles make them an ideal ambassador for the AYA brand on UK soil.
You can also visit Manor & Co. in person at The Game Fair — find them at Stand No. G1521.
