The phrase is a Yorkshire/Lancashire one which roughly means no airs and graces which may also mean "What you see is what you get". I drive past the Harewood estate most weeks to get to my rough shooting and its one of the few left which is still relatively intact with its farms and land geared to shooting.

Congratulations, you have good taste.

No gun can compare handling wise with a quality English single. I am really curious to see how you will do with it at driven shooting and how the experience will compare with using a double.

I have handled a fair number of these quality singles and they puzzle me. Obviously they're too good for the role of normal (ie cheap) single shots. They seem to have been well looked after, that and the 2 1/2 chamber do not indicate wild fowling. Makes me wonder about who ordered and how they used these guns.

I shoot quite a bit at high driven pheasants here in theUK and I’m going to see if I shoot better with only one shot,my preference is for good hammerguns but anything British will do or best Spanish I have quite a few of both.
