Description:
This little Purdey is amazing.  It is very close to the way it left the makers
in 1937.  It is safe to say that the blue and case color show at least 90% of their
original glow.  The barrels are 26" with 2 5/8" chambers, proofed for 1 1/8oz.,
choked cylinder and improved cylinder.  The stock measures 14 1/2"  with
1 1/2" drop at comb and 2 1/2." at heel.  The gun weighs 6 1/4 lbs.  Checker
is sharp and both stock and forend are sound, no blemishes or repairs.  This
little gun hasn't been out very much.

Now for the wonderful surprise.  The case includes all of the original tools,
unused.  As pictured, they include:  three turnscrews, oil bottle, bore and
chamber brushes, a field pull through, various small brushes and a stuck
case remover, all in their leather pouches.  There is a spare set of firing
pins, with their springs, housed in an ivory bottle.  And the case is original
for the gun.  Reduced price is firm and includes 2 flats of RST ammo.
