Purdey Shotguns
Back Together After 50 Years
While out shooting last month, members of our team witnessed a very rare occurrence. Two pairs of consecutively numbered Purdey side-by-sides were reunited on the moors for the first time since they were completed in 1974, nearly fifty years ago.

Purdey Shotguns
Out On The Moor
The two pairs of 12-bores were completed in the summer of 1974 just a couple of months apart and have had very different lives and owners. The first pair were completed for a French firearms dealer, while the other were ordered by a New York-based client. They have minor differences - a flat-top rib and American comb for the New York pair, and a game-rib and English stock shape for the other.

Purdey Shotguns
Side-By-Side
Both guns enjoyed two lovely days of shooting in the beautiful Northumberland countryside alongside a number of other Purdey guns of different vintages and types. The team were out on East Allenheads, a moor which is no stranger to Purdey. The estate has strong ties to our former owner, Richard Beaumont, and our guns have been used there for many generations.
