J. Purdey & Sons Hammerless Sidelock Ejector Self Opening Double Rifle in .375 H&H Mag (Belted/Rimless).

The Beesley patent self-opening action has sideclips and Purdey’s reinforced bolstered frame, disk set strikers, a bolted safety, and two triggers. Stock is reinforced with an extended top strap and the rolled trigger bow and an extended guard bow tang. The receiver is has a brushed bright finish with well-cut house Rose & Scroll, gold lined cocking indicators and the words “SAFE” and “BOLTED” as well as the serial number are inlaid in gold.

Chopper lump 23” bbls with rib extension third grip, quarter rib with two folding leaf rear sights and claw mounts along with Purdey’s distinctive “clam” shell front sight protector and flip up moon sight. The factory mounted S&B 1.5-6x42mm scope rest in a one-piece Purdey scope mount appropriately engraved and serial numbered to the rifle.

The well laid out walnut stock is very nicely figured with a full pistol grip and trap grip cap, leather pad, a blank gold oval and drop points. Purdey’s unmistakable beavertail forend has an Anson push rod.

Proofed in 1994 and completed in 1997, this rifle is pictured in Donald Dallas’ “Purdey Gun and Rifle Makers, The Definitive History”. An extremely well-made and rare rifle in a very usable configuration.
