More enlightenment needed here. The world ran out and copied the Holland & Holland action, jOe. The Purdey is not actually copied to the extent the H & H action is, for reasons you can look up on your own.
If you saw the list of companies that built Darne clone guns over the years, you would realize just how asinine that statement you typed really is.
They built A MILLION guns with their own name. As I aksed you to do before, name another gun company that has built a million double guns jOe.
Doubt you noticed, but, when you buy a new Purdey O/U, you get a monoblock gun. Regis Darne is laughing out loud, somewhere.
Best,
