The truth is Rigby is today a tradename. Too many have been around that name to actually have done more bad thing to the name than anything else.
I would even dare to say all this turmoil that has been around the name"Rigby", have had a negative influence on even the older guns too. H&H, Purdey, Boss and a few others has remained the same and with same ownership without abrupted lines. The remained on the same addresses also.
