I can find a lot of "Purdy" paintbrushes at ACE hardware- as well as seeing pictures of "Bud" Purdy- the late Idaho rancher who went hunting with Hemingway, Gary Cooper, Howard Hawks and others out in the Sun Valley area of Idaho- decades ago--

But if I had the dinero to buy a Purdey shotgun- previously owned, rather than await a 2 year delivery and the VAT factor-- I'd buy a Perrazi 12 bore o/U similar to the one George Digweed uses-- and keep the change-- RWTF
