Almost Too Pretty To Shoot

12-07-2006 4:48am#1Good morning,
I was reading the latest issue (dated July 17, 2006) of Business Week magazine and was pleasantly surprised to find a short piece about Purdey.
Well, can't be to hard on whomever publishes a positive story on guns and their makers, now can we. Some details are not as they should be - "oak imported from Turkey" - "chiseling tight, checkered patterns in the wood" - but overall a positive effort.
Purdey's bespoke shotguns are handcrafted, the old-fashioned way.

A better than expected slide show illustrating several steps in the gunmaking process including a few shots of the Hammersmith workshop:
Richard Purdey in the famed long room of the Purdey premises on South Audley Street.
