Description:
A James Purdey stalking rifle made in 1836. It is in excellent vintage condition and could be shot today. It is a 12 bore, (.720") with excellent multi groove rifling with strong lands and smooth grooves. The barrell is 29" and has near 100% Damascus pattern showing. It is equipped with a blade front sight and a single 50 yd. standing rear sight with 3 folding leaves. The Purdey name and address is very ledgeable on the barrel. All the other metal work is fully engraved with scroll and game scenes showing deer, stags, a hog and dog scene on the lock. The lock works perfectly as does the stalking safety. This rifle weighs 9 lbs. and is pleasant to shoot with patched round balls. The Walnut stock is in nice shape as well and does not show any repairs or damage. The Flat-top checkering is full wrap around on the forend and grip.
