At Dr Norris’ passing George was offered his choice of one of three guns, There were, if I remember correctly (I’ll check later). Two Purdeys and a Churchill

He chose the “little Purdey” two barrel set

The remaining guns stayed with the Norris family and I have no idea whether they were kept or sold
