Yes I must agree, I find it strange that Purdey who is one of the most reserved and conservative of all the British gun makers would make a rifle without iron sights. Sure the rifle is marketed at long range but it will still work at close range so why not fit iron sights. At 22000 pounds starting price I would want iron sights even if I never intended to use them. To me they finish a rifle perfectly. Also strange that Purdey would be trying to break into a market which is already dominated by hundreds of companies in the US and the rest of world who specialise in long range shooting, especially considering that overall sales of Purdey bolt action rifles would be quite low, and the target audience for a Purdey rifle are normally wealthy people who like classic rifles. Still, they must have done their homework so maybe I am wrong. Hopefully it works for them.
