A gentleman who works for Purdey gave me this link on their website which talks about the new trigger plate shotguns that Perugini Visini would be making for them. A number of people in the UK are very angry about this and point to Boss who have got their Robertson guns made in Birmingham, still in the UK.

Perugini Visini do make superb guns, but, a Purdey should be made in the UK IMHO. But then, my opinion is that of someone who would never be able to afford a Purdey, so what do they care?

Iqbal,

J Roberts gunmakers sell Spanish shotguns in the UK and among other top gunmakers William POwell have a line called the Heritage Series that is amde either in Italy or Spain, I don't recall where. Jonathan and other experts here would have much more information on this.

OT but I posted about a Pakistani gunmaker in the Asian forums and asked you if you knew anything about them. Please let me know what your experience is. Thanks.
