Thanks, Chris. My BHE has two grouse in flight on the sides and a woodcock on the bottom. I received a DHE Reproduction in 28 ga yesterday that's nice. Has some wear, but price was commensurate. As far as the Purdey, I'm more excited about the case than the gun. The seller's eyesight isn't too good, if you know what I mean. Felt sort of like a blind date, but I'm keeping it. I haven't weighed it, but it's no lightweight. Shot a round of skeet wih the 20 ga tubes and hit about my usual (which would make a lot of people quit). In my mid-sixties now, so hope I have a number of years to enjoy them in front of me. Time will tell. Will have a hell‐of-a sale someday!
