As someone that works with metal and wood, I’m always inspired and in awe of the craftsmanship at this level
Truly beautiful craftsmanship!
As a person who attended public schools, my budget would never allow. However, I can always dream...
Thanks for sharing.
Simply the best content on old English guns. thank you for sharing. I enjoy learning about old guns..
Thank you so much for sharing these fine works of art with us. Cheers Ron
What a delight. If I looked after myself as much as these guns have been looked after, there is no way I would be in good working order in 3/4 of the time these have been around. The craftsmanship is beyond compare! What a privilege it is to have access to such things of wonder... Well filmed and presented. Good work guys!!!
What a fantastic video. Thoroughly enjoyed it Well done lads.👊
Our shooting group has a few Purdy's and a Boss scattered amongst the Brownings, Berettas, and Kreighoffs every week. These English guns are something to admire and covet as we all try and break targets. Obtaining one is on my bucket list for sure!
Always a good day when you post new videos buddy!
I love watching your videos, and really enjoy how much you appreciate engraving work and the finer points of dressing up a shotgun. I am a romantic when it comes to classic shotguns, but my FAVORITES are the ones that have clean boxes and lines. sleek, clean and shine where its needed and function above busy messy stuff that to me takes away from its lines and design
Absolutely stunning piece of kit! Thanks so much for sharing, JC!
now this is a quality video and not a chilly pepper in sight 😛
Those are some stunning shotguns. Thanks for showing us.
Now this is a video, everybody with an interest in guns should see. The pinnacle of Gun making. The two best makers the world has ever seen. When I was a 15-year-old boy, a gun collector called Arthur Williamson. Had both a Woodward and a boss o/u. He let me shoot them back to back. In his garden where he had a trap and a pattern plate, he has long since passed . And now I’m older I realise what a fantastic experience this was and how a few people ever get the chance to shoot the worlds. Best guns. I have to say I love a Woodward but there is just something about a Boss&co
Oh to spend a couple hours in that gunroom! Great video
Oh wow what a selection of guns/craftmanship
Great video!
- now we need a follow up the Sinnerton gun maker...
A very interesting and enjoyable video . If you love shot gun shooting videos like this don't come any better.
Beautiful guns and a great video. BTW Lord Ripon used to shoot butterflies with cartridges loaded with dust by his household staff during the off-season. Cheers
Great videos, better people!
You lucky guy Johnny, Three absolutely stunning guns
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, a "best" gun is the one you shoot well with.
Interesting that one of your sponsors, namely Longthorne, who are now one of the 'big names' in English gunmaking, did not feature in your video!
Lovely gun and content just the edit at 5:44 when you removed the barrels I was expecting you to show the boss or the trunnions rather than cut to the stock… which is amazing. The style and production of the videos is very nice, so much improvement compared with when I watch something from 5+ years ago. Nice work.
Thanks for the opportunity to see these legendary guns
Beautiful guns AND Harry Potter references? This channel is the real deal 😄
That’s not a shotgun it’s a piece of art. Very nice.
Agree
I fell in love with that 2nd purdy ❤
Yes please !
Any best gun from the top 3 English makers. 👍
I would be like a kid in a sweet shop in there…
I love the Mossberg comment because so true. Although I am literally the guy that owns a Mossberg 930 field gun that I justified to myself with OR3Gun aftermarket internals and so literally about as utilitarian as possible, I can still come to your channel and fully appreciate the extreme other end. Although these are untouchable to me, it's impossible to not appreciate the utter timeless beauty and appeal of the highly crafted pieces. Thank you for your channel content, I live vicariously through it.
Many years ago I visited Purdey’s shop in London. Handled two SxS shotguns which felt incredible. There was a O/U on the shelf. To be honest, it felt terrible in my hands. Granted, this is a subjective assessment, but that’s what I felt. Incredibly beautiful, but didn’t feel “lively” at all. This was a long time ago. I’d love to handle on today!
As someone who has never held a boss or purdey never mind shot one, I struggle so much with the price, for that kind of money you could buy a longthorn, a ceasar and a krieghoff and still have money to spare.
However a boss is one of the most bbb
I very rarely salivate excessively during your presentations but did twice today.
Right at the end, a number a English makers were named but I didn’t hear the sponsor mentioned!
Very very nice all shotguns
Whenever you watch video of Johnny shooting, it looks like he's shooting a gun with 24" barrels...😂
In for the driven butterfly video
Nice work gone into the guns, but however much we pay the same things they do, my mate took his expensive gun out and as we was shooting bolting rabbits while ferreting I took my cheaper gun and I shot more than he did and also did not care about throwing the gun on the ground to collect shot rabbits, I think the gun was an old Bikal it was built like a tank, but also I have more expensive guns but at the end of the day they are tools for a job and scratched and dints can happen out in the field.
Being so well jointed and made how many cartridges fired before a re-build? Expected some of these guns have seen a lot of use.
What's his problem with 28 inch barrel guns?
Superb. Erm, the initial Purdey, u note in shop is a 1969 gun, but on the range Archie, said referred to 1980s: is this because the Ken Hunt engraving was done then?! Thanks
I wuz just recco-ing the 27 Boss to a Mate in Oxford via weblink, just realised same gun as shown here
Sorry initially thought you said GENE Hunt as in Detective Chief Inspector Gene Hunt (1934-1953 onwards) of Life on Mars. Tho Ken is a time traveller in a way 2
No mention of a Manton?
Ooh that Boss. If I win the Lottery it’s mine. And yes Jonny I will allow you to shoot it.
Get buying those tickets!
Any news on the Rizzini BR 460 with the Archangel engraving? 😮
I might see if I can track it down when I’m over there next
Beautiful pieces, but in answer to that if i had that money i wouldn't buy one, like an e type jag i love looking at it but its not something to use hard all day everyday
Great video but prefer my mk38 grade 1 trap 😊
At approximately 8:40 there is a discussion about steel/bismuth/tungsten shot in these super high-end firearms. While I agree with the bismuth comment, I would disagree with the tungsten shot. Tungsten is much harder than steel, and I would treat it with the same if not more care than steel shot. I really did enjoy watching the video of a bunch of things that I will never be able to afford.
When you think that these Old English Guns were made using The Mk1 Eyeball and the Skill was in The Gunsmiths hands that created these wonders of Engineering. No CNC Machines and suchlike in those days. It`s a skill that takes Years to hone and perfect and my God did those guys perfect it.
Awesome video, but your cameraman in the very beginning sure didn’t like you swinging around with that muzzle pointed in his direction.
Who knew Hobbits were so well versed in fine guns! 👍🏻
7:44 Alice in Wonderland Animal scene engravings. Cool.
All guns are a feat of engineering and craftsmanship
I’m a black gun guy, I don’t really do wood, I don’t really do engraving, I don’t do gushing. However, that is a beautiful looking gun! With that said I would likely be too scared to take it out and shoot it.
🤤 absolutely stunning 😍
I'd gladly own it.
I've squandered money on guns before but I don't think I'll ever reach that level.
I can’t but I could but I won’t big pill to swallow.
Have you ever run across an exhibition gun you've had to wear gloves to handle?
👍 👍 💯
Those guns are gorgeous. If an average joe wanted an English shotgun what would be the brand or maker to look for?
Used, probably a Webley & Scott although there are tonnes of provincial guns that are very affordable
@@tgsoutdoors i will look into it. Thanks.
No puedo decir nada porque no entiendonada de lo que dice ni siquiera se de que empresa es .
👏👏
i can see all the work that goes in to that first shot gun . and i know its aimed at the upper end of the shotguns , but even if i won the lotto , it would not be for me . not a fan at all . sorry .
You keep talking of steel, is Bizmuth that expensive in the UK that it is not available to use in those fine shotguns?
About £1400 to £1700 a thousand for Bismuth.
Yes !!!
It’s expensive enough if you use a lot of it, but with the price of these guns and driven birds it’s still the cheapest part of a driven day
Wonderfull craftmanship! But i would never use a gun, in that Price range! Its just insane, no gun Can be worth that amount of money! Its a shotgun!!
Love to be so wealthy, I could have a pair of Purdeys made and take them out in the foulest weather, fire one, chuck it in the mud to be picked up and reloaded etc. let’s see if they’re worth the money and get a nice patina on it. These old guns are so pristine, it’s a joke.
Absolutely beautiful, but far to expensive to take shooting, If I won the lottery id still want a gun I could take shooting
I still love my ata I wonder if I'd stop shooting it after a lottery win 🤔
You could have both. Who has one coat, or one pair of boots? Sometimes its just nice for the art of it all.
Any ideas how to win the lottery? ATB
Then what is the point of owning one, they are designed and built to be used.
Very nice indeed but give me a side by side any day of the week, call me old fashioned but that’s just me, horses for courses everyone’s different.
Was that Mossberg 500 remark aimed at me??? 3:27
😂 😂 😂 nahhhh
@@tgsoutdoors it was ha...And it was deserved.
Bel fucile ma vai a vedere un Beretta so6eell o un so10eell sono di un livello superiore
The Fabbri shotgun is many times better….
Gun snup get the fu.. out
If you haven't already please consider Jesus as your lord and savior. He's the only path without a dead end! We are born with a sin nature. The wages of our sin is death. The good news of the gospel is Jesus paid our debts on the cross! There's no sinners prayer. Salvation and repentance are granted by God. Evidence of salvation is living a godly life through the ministry of the Holy Spirit! Evolution isnt gonna turn us into something else before we die,that's impossible! If we evolved from monkeys how are there still monkeys?! Please, all of you think about this. You're making a decision between blessing and life or curse and death. God treated Jesus as if he was the guilty one so we can be innocent. Idol gods and false religion's can't save us. Repent and seek the one whom can. JESUS!
That's a beautiful shotgun. Have a blessed week!
Give me a Mossberg and an Audi instead. Scatter guns are the most fun to those who can't have AR-15 rifles. To those who can, an expensive shotgun is like a chandelier in the outhouse.
British manufacturing...problably as good as the Automobile industry... 😅👎
