I have had the gun in my hands .
It is the trigger release .
Made in Italy by P&V from parts supplied by Purdey then returned to England for assembly & finishing by Purdey .
I detect a smattering of journalistic licence actually . Why would you manufacture all the parts in London , ship to Italy , ship back and then assemble and finish????
More likely using Italian skill and expertise and the necessary machinery , then applying a premium pricing structure.

Seems as though I could be wrong?
Purdey are today saying that the trigger plate gun is wholly made and assembled by London craftsmen in their workshop.
Why then was P&V ever mentioned by their representative ?

The "Sporter" model is the P&V sourced product and is still on offer alongsidethe supposedly London-sourced "Trigger plate"
