Default Harry's guns

Sounds like fake news. Sold matched pair of Purdeys ("rifles"?)for about $60K. If that's the extent of their business acumen, now that mommy isn't supporting them, they are in for a rough ride.

Both Harry and William seem to be pretty strong men and neither of them inclined to be bent by pressure from inside/outside the family. They have always been their own men. If he is indeed selling them then I doubt it's because Meghan is driving the decision.

I don't follow the "royals" but it seems like Meghan has been made the "bad guy" since they were married. I have read that there is a fair amount of animosity towards her because of her racial make-up and the fact that she's not a Brit and I'm sure there are elements in the press that make a lot of $ off that narrative.

I'm betting he still owns, and has no intention of selling, a whole lot more guns than that pair of Purdey's...

That guy surrendered his testicles when he married the B-list, lefty American harpy. Good grief. But he no doubt will enjoy life among the Hollywood twits. His wife left Hollywood a 38-year old actress of modest success, and returned a real-life princess and international celebrity. She got exactly what she wanted. And now, she has a ridiculously “woke”, whipped husband who will do as she wishes. I wonder how this guy is gonna feel in 10 years?

Ha! He earned a $100 Mossberg pump by finishing his English project and now thinks he gets a gun anytime he finishes a project.

Wait a minute. That's what I've been telling my wife. You mean it's not true!?!

At that rate he'll get the pair of Purdeys for his college senior thesis.
