Have the opertunity to trade for a Purdey. I will be trading my Hussey and some nice cash.
The owner says there is some light pitting in the barrels and would recomend they be honed, should this be of concern? The chokes are more open than i would like for them to be and how will this affect them? Also will this take it out of proof?
All in all both the Hussey and Purdey are from the same vintage, pre WW 1. My Hussey is in great shape with no issues. The Purdey has this one question.
Also It has a red stain finish and I would like that removed and a leather pad installed, can anyone recomend someone?
