Jim,

Mine is a Nº51 because the AYA people said so. According to what I can gather, the Nº51 is an intermediate model between the Nº117 and the Nº53. It lacks the engraving, goldwashed locks and sideclips of the Nº53, but includes the Purdeys Third Bite, front articulated trigger and rolled trigger guard. It is my understading that the Nº117 lacks the last three features if I remember correctly from a one owned by JayCee.

Regards
