buckstix*UPDATE* Mystery Underlever 360ex DR - Alex Henry or Purdey - Interesting Story ?
A mystery Alexander Henry 360ex - I love guns with a story.
I picked this up this weekend and started researching. Its absolutely "Mint" and I'm sure it will be a fun little shooter. I have sent an inquiry to John Dickson & Son for any info they might have. They have the Alexander Henry records. Research will continue.
*UPDATE* a fellow forum member pointed out this little Double has more features of a Purdey than an Alex Henry - Perhaps it was pilfered from Purdey and its not an Alex Henry after all. See this link ..

Do you plan to finish the gun or leave it in the white?

Hello Ken,
I haven't decided yet. In the white helps tell the story.

Hello Duane,
That's not as bad as the seller .. perhaps he sold stolen property.

All this adds to the story!!!

***** UPDATE ***** First field test ... this is great .. ! !
I used Hornady .358 dia HPXTP pistol bullets and bumped them up to .366 dia in my 9.3 swage die.
