J. PURDEY & SONS

The maker confirms that the guns were built in 1892. The guns were originally ordered as non-ejector guns, although by this time ejectors had become standard. Consequently, although not fitted, the action and fore-end appear to be already machined to accept the additional parts required. This is confirmed by the note in the maker's records "provision for ejectors".
