MaacK,Thats a nice looking"Well Traveled 1890s PURDEY. I'm sure someone will soon mention that the stock has had a "Cod" fitted to the Straight-Hand stock, converting it into a "Pistol-Grip". They can be made as a "Temporary" that can be removed puting it back to a Straight-Hand stock, or made to be a permanent fixture as I think your gun is. I am sure that you will have a potential "Punter" Knock Down the Value somewhat over the "Pistol-Grip"! If you want to have a Minor Heart Attack' ask David Maynard(PURDEYS longest serving employee at the "Front-Shop") the Cost or Restocking Your Nice Old Side-Lock!
