Not quite on topic, but to funny to me to not pass along. I was handling a Purdey one day, at an event where Purdey was represented at Griffin and Howe, and I expressed reservations regarding closing a Purdey (Beesley self opener) action to a Purdey rep. His comment was a treat, "Our clients do not close their own guns..."

I got a hoot out of it.
