Here's a B-quality Purdey (refinished, of course): http://www.mwreynolds.com/HTML/shotPurdeyBQualitySidelock.htmlFrom what I can see, it's missing the engraving and a lot of filing up. While it's all their mechanically, it's still a ways from "finished". OWD

Smallbore and others, I think what Greener perceived in having three or more Best gun models at different price points was what Smallbore was saying . The Best guns only differed in price because of wood and decoration. All three of Greener's best guns were made to the same quality standards.

Daryl, I agree and believe that's also what the top Lindner made Charles Dalys represented. When they reached the various Diamond grades the only differential was in embellishment.

Joe, I am comfortable with your thought and definition, as well as that from Smallbore. I would wonder if Amarillo Mike might jump in , now, just to "belabor the point". I'm getting tired.

I dunno Daryl, the last post I read from Mike, he was having trouble with his ammo working.
