Good Price. Wish it was a 416 though and I'd snag it.

For those who may not be familiar, these are very good rifles. Marlin made the MR-7 for a few short years in the late 1990s, but in a perfect world they’d have gone on much longer because it is just a great gun for the price. I have two, used to have another, and encourage one of you to buy this one so I don’t have to. No, I don’t like gun broker, but hey it has it’s uses…

Being a newbie to collecting African Dangerous Game Rifles I am interested in what the veterans on this thread think of this listing on GI. Thanks

Interesting opinions thus far. I find the rifle to be exquisite. It displays incredible workmanship and talent. Like many customs out there, you couldn't reproduce it for the asking price. The cheek piece is not quite to my taste and I would prefer a smaller scope as it looks like the one on the rifle is mounted a bit high due to the large objective lense and maybe too much drop in the stock? But then, you could go to the builder and have one made to your exact specifications for twice the money...
Having said that, I suspect that the rifle will sit there for quite awhile (and I think this is a relist and HAS beensitting for some time). The market is small. And "John Rigby London" is not engraved on it. If it were, it would already be sold.

It’s a take-apart gun, not a take-down gun. That hurts value quite a bit. It’s Italian, a nation not commonly considered for best grade magazine rifles. It’s highly embellished, a style not everyone prefers. It’s a dated piece with a 1980s optic and mounts that isn’t necessarily what someone would want to use today or perhaps they’d prefer a straight tube.

All this to say that it’s a hard gun to move. It looks like a $10k gun to me considering the factors.

$17k by comparison gets you a 375HH take apart from Holland, or a Dakota two barrel set in true take-down design.

Just saw this

 

[RAVEN ROCKS PRECISION]

I just checked AH sponsor @RAVEN ROCKS PRECISION website. They have Norma 6.5 Japanese brass and Norma 7.7 Japanese factory hunting ammo available. I was surprised.

We carry a lot of the classics. We also have 7.7 Japanese brass. We're working on getting some more unique brass in stock as well. Lately, we've been adding new stuff nearly daily. We've got some Sierra 38 Cal bullets in stock now that I added this morning. Next shipment of brass should arrive this month.

Great! I'll WhatsApp Townsend @Bob Nelson 35Whelen and tell him about the 7.7 Japanese brass you have for his various wildcats. Thanks!

$350 for a 8mm Brno sporter. Good basis for a project rifle.

Yes good basis a CZ 24.
The picture of the muzzle bore diameter just doesn't seem like an 8mm Mauser, more like a .22 something, .243 something or.257 something.
Still a great basis for a build, if one has time and money.
I pass by Fairhope every few months, may just stop by and inspect it.
But hell, it's still a CZ, and these quality Czech builds are becoming more obscure.

@CoElkHunter
Mate after working with the 25 samurai express based on a shortened 50 BMG I given up on more wildcats. A 65 round barrel life wasn't worth it.
Those 131 gn black jacks at over 4,900 fps were great but 20 loads per pound of powder and barrel life made the gain not worth the pain.

Don't give up so easily Bob. You'll never be the next P.O. Ackley or Rocky Gibbs if you do. Besides, many of the AH members here are counting on you for the next latest and greatest wildcat cartridge. God speed Townsend Nelson!

Is that a 6.5 in front of the SN or G5?

 

[Mtn_Infantry]

That Rigby in 450NE will go for multiple's of the high estimate. A good/great condition fully engraved 1901 Rigby Rising Bite with 15.5" stock...

Not sure if you watched any of the auctions but all the doubles went for over the estimate. I was surprised how low a few of the 1st Gen SAA’s went, and a few of the transferables.

That 450 Rising Bite went for $40ish before factoring in the buyer’s premium, sales tax or anything. The online bidders tryna snatch it cheap quickly got filtered out and it got down to a couple guys on the phones and a live bidder.
