How do we define a BEST shotgun maker?  Obviously, they need to be capable of producing best guns but the definition doesn’t stop there…  They need to only produce best guns.  Their lineup of models shouldn't include entry level or mid-tier models, these aren’t in the DNA of a BEST gun maker.  Without concern for how long it will take or how much it will cost, they are committed to only producing the very best - period.

Without doubt or debate, there are just three in the world today - and each is in London.  Purdey, Holland & Holland and Boss.  In this episode we will look at the history and design achievements of the James Purdey and Sons company.
