Thanks Mike - much appreciated.

This is a 1928 Kell-engraved Purdey. Re-barrelled in 2001 by Purdey and re-stocked the same year. While we were on the stock finish thread I thought the finish and figure in this one would be nice for people to see. The Irish connection? It came from a chap in Ireland!

I think this is agreat example of how an original action can be turned into a new gun (better than new?) at a quarter of the price of new and without the long waiting list.

I've been out with it today busting afew clays and it shoots as good as it looks.
