- The company was founded on 7
September 1920 in Eibar (Guipuzcoa), before Eibar’s notary public Alejandro
Astaburaga Eraña.
Two employees of the company Orbea S.R.C., which at the time was a firearms
manufacturer (and was later to produce bicycles and motorcycles), decided
they had the sufficient know-how to embark on the creation of a new firm,
specialising in high-quality revolver manufacture. Their names were
Juan Solozabal Mendive and Juan Olave Bilbao, and the new company they
founded was called Olave, Solozaval SRC.
