The Brits value originality in an old English gun far less than we do. A old gun which hasn’t been serviced over time would be seen as neglected. Adjusting a fine gun for modern LOP is generally not considered to harm a gun’s value. While they do prefer a checkered butt, a well-done leather covered pad on a Purdey is normal and acceptable. I wouldn’t send a Purdey to anyone but Dewey Vicknair.
