Our Bespoke Models
When a tailor creates a suit, they are precise with their measurements and techniques so you receive a garment that fits you exclusively. We follow the same principles when creating our bespoke guns. One of the joys of this process is the knowledge that, from the very first fitting, every element is made entirely to your personal specifications. Each detail of your bespoke Purdey — the wood you select for your stock, the barrels, the personalised hand-engraving, the finishing — is tailored to your preferences. To build a gun alongside our dedicated team is to witness traditional English gunmaking at its finest. When we create a Purdey gun, we aim to make it beautiful — and to make it work beautifully for a hundred years and beyond. This process is your way to add your name to the Purdey legacy. Step inside our workshop and immerse yourself in an experience like none other.To learn more, please contact our Gun Team at +44 (0)207 449 1801 or fill in the form below and we’ll contact you shortly.
