Well, apparently orphan Purdey barrels can be fitted. According to my google search, Purdey fitted these barrels to another existing gun with different serial numbers. Find that gun and you have a four barrel set.
Good research! So, it would appear that if Purdey fitted them then they would have info as to to previous owner. But the current owner says he does not know and has " written" to Purdey. Purdey might not tell him, but one would think he might ask Purdey to contact the previous owner. I wonder what the real story is or can not be told. ( Maybe that was done and the previous owner does not want them, I would think , however, that would have been disclosed)
