“We pride ourselves on selling the best English shotguns including Purdey, Holland & Holland, Boss, Joseph Lang, Churchill, amongst others…for over 150 years, more than just a gun shop, now also specialising in country clothing, footwear and accessories.” Elderkin, who essentially sells tools to kill wildlife, sprinkles its website (designed by fellow Spalding-ers 79Design) with all the usual fatuous trigger words beloved by the shooting industry like ‘tradition’, ‘sport’, and ‘country’. It’s doubtful anyone visiting bloodbusiness.info would mistake Elderkin for anything other than a supporter of shooting, but if a company is so proud of its obsession with firearms that it actually states on its homepage that “Being such a traditional company, guns and not computers are our forte”, they deserve to be listed…
