Why a Purdey?? They just have a mystique in the world of shotguns. This is especially true in the USA, where Purdey pigeon guns have been used by the elite of the flyer game. Like a Parker, Purdeys have been made in more variety of gauges and weights than other makes, have features like side clips on pigeon guns, which are very rare or unobtainable on other brands. I have owned and shot guns by Greener, William Evans, Cogswell and Harrison, Woodward, and other Brit guns, but the Purdey has a cache that the others don't. Well, maybe the Woodward.
