Re: The Purdey "200 Year Battery of Nine" - Ahmed577

Thankyou John I will try again. (1) need to be pretty middle aged and a lady of course to apply for job as gun cleaner. (2) need to qualify as a gun cleaner before adoption would be considered. (3) already own a 577 built new by H&H in 1990 engraved by Coggan with scenes of Ahmed the great Kenyan bull elephant. (4) battery of 9 consists of a 22 hornet rook rifle s-n 31022, this gun is not pictured as nothing to show at time of photo. 10 bore listed twice should only be once s-n 31010 built as a rifle choked gun 27 inch barrels with extra set of 32 inch smooth bore barrels. PURDEY called their paradox style a rifled choke gun. I don't know how many they built or whether they built a 10 bore. I have a friend with a 12 bore rifled choked gun. They have not built a rifle choked gun or a rook rifle for a long long time. (5) 375 rifle is not scoped I guess the scope pictured is a mule for zeroing in. (6) the accoutments ( camping gear, handguns etc ) excite me very much all sanctioned by purdey. I would like to mention to members that the boss and purdey batteries are a tribute to all followers of a wonderful art and sport. I own some great older guns and if it wasn't for those people who loved the art I would have never had the opportunity to enjoy my life the way I do now. I might add that I wass born a hunter first.
