To clear up the issue of the gun willed to GBE by Dr. Norris, refer to pages 210 and 278/279 of 'The Upland Shooting Life'. One Purdey Dr. Norris had built in 1929, for himself. The other Purdey and a Churchill box lock, had been "left to" Dr. Norris by his friend Lynford Biddle. It was this (Biddle) Purdey that GBE selected and refers to as the "little" Purdey. It had an extra set of more open 26" barrels. All 3 guns where 12 bore. GBE had his choice of the 3 and chose the "little" Purdey.
