Why a Purdey? Have you looked at H&H Royals or Dickson Round Actions? Purdeys are nice but so are other Brit guns.

Dickson Round Action shotguns are truly works of art. I wouldn’t discount them. Holland & Holland is right up there with Purdey. But Purdey is like a Rolls Royce or Harvard education. Yes, there are other cars out there, and other universities, but there’s only one Rolls Royce, only one Harvard, only one Purdey, etc.
