There is something about owning a piece of history. Mate of mine has an old Purdy it came with the original buyers details and a list of the work done to it where and when. It's traveled across europe. OK as a shotgun but so much more with the history. I used to dream as a kid of owning a ruger black hawk pistol ever since I saw it in G&A 😂 I had similar dreams, also brought on by teenage viewing of G&A, and scored my first ten in the black with a borrowed .44 Ruger Blackhawk Bisley, the owner also had a Ruger Super Blackhawk. I owned and shot some nice examples of historical handguns over the years. I was loathe to let them go. 🙁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one on the butt rnd of the action, is certainly a fox...maybe a coyote. I am talking the one on the barrel. The question was "what's the animal above the trigger"... According to Sotheby's description of the lot the one on the barrel is a Leopard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
