Maybe it has something to do with double secret probation?

That's a Laser engraved pattern. The pins within the engraving pattern meant to be flat. They are engraved with the Laser as part of the pattern all at the same time. Innother words the pins are assembled into the frame at the time of Laser engraving. Then assembly must be done carefully to line them up so the pattern matches. If the pin is not flush with the surface it can also detract from the looks.
I have no idea what an opposing double secret bridge action is. i suspect it is a marketing technique - sometimes referred to as...if you can't dazzle em with brilliance, baffle em with bullshit.... best regards, tom

What seems to be the mystery here? Look at the gun.
Double underlugs without using the name Purdey.
Why, I have no idea.
Unless maybe the 1776 refugees from Long Island to Connecticut are still pissed about the whole thing...

May God bless America and those who defend her.

Maybe it doesn't refer to the lockup at all. It is a strange name for a feature.

Bridge is the name given to the part of the action flats beteen the left and right side. Like the horizontal bit of the letter H. Double bridge I am guessing refers to the fact that in this action the bridge is on two levels, one at the flats and one below, under the sliding bolt. Some doubles do not have the top bridge. Just a guess.
