I've had 4 Purdey's made for me as Mr Trevallion will attest. While all great guns that fit me, nothing is more pleasurable for me to take afield than my 1947 G2119B 28" WS1 & 2 Straight grip. Probably the best upland bird gun combo ever, bird mudering machine. I looked 15 years for the right one, and I am prouder of it than all my guns. The sidelock guys need to get over themselves.

I'd pay $8000 for a 99% vintage 12 gun with no excuses.........all.day.long.
