Owen himself was not a gentleman of good standing. .
Please tell me what you mean by that. I think a man that served and gave his country a weapon to defend itself with, is of quite good standing.
He was a raging alcoholic. He died aged 33.
Just because you design a weapon or served in the military don't make you a saint.
Owen was basically a garden shed tinkerer who I can't find had any formal engineering training. .
