Re: The Queen's Rifle

The font does not match the font of that period originally used by Rigby. There are punctuation marks missing such as period after Co and St and commas. The two different serial numbers on the receiver are unsightly.
I am disappointed in the selection of the island rear sight base and the contouring of the barrel to fake the effect of a barrel band rear sight base ( which is readily available from Recknagle).
The rear tang of the action can be filed down or inletted in a way to avoid the poorly executed cocking piece clearance cut.
Overall I am not impressed by the design or execution of this rifle. Certainly not fit for a Queen or princess.
