I recently viewed an auction item on gunbroker.com which listed a beautiful double 20 Ga which was described as being a Henry Atkin by Purdeys. There was comment that Purdy later had Henry Atkin remove the wording "by Purdeys" from the guns. I was skeptical of this description as I could not imagine Purdy making a gun for a lesser seller.

Does anyone know if Purdy actually made guns for Henry Atkin?
