I'm putting up for sale a pre-war Rigby I bought here last Oct from one of our members. I had planned to do more with it but I would rather put the $ back into more hunts. It's in identical condition as when I bought it and has had no changes made to it. The only updates are getting the factory letter from Rigby and I had JJ go through the gun to verify the condition and check it over. Neat rifle priced way under what an uncut original would cost.
This is a prewar John Rigby & Co .275 Rigby delivered from the factory on Aug 13, 1929. It was originally a 25” barrel but has been cut down to a 22” barrel with ramp beaded front sight with two folding leaf express rear sights with leaves for 100 and 200 yards as well as the correct factory cocking piece mounted peep sight, which operates perfectly. It features a standard Mauser flag safety with “SAFE” inlaid in gold. The wood stock features an attractive leather covered recoil pad but the fore end has been cut down. It also appears that there was a side scope mount at one time and the holes were professionally filled. This is not evident from the outside of the action as they did a nice job but can be seen in the bolt runners (see pic). LOP is 13-1/2" to the end of the leather covered recoil pad and weight is 6.7 lbs. It’s in good condition with the exception of the cut down stock and barrel length. $6200
