McKinney 300 member I also wonder where the old surviving guns are. I happen to own a couple of rigby rifles built in 1926 which are most dear to me. One being a 416 rifle no 5117. In my view (probably biased) it is more beautiful than any other 416 I have seen (I have only seen pictures of other old 416s). It was made for prince hamidullah khan and presented to him on his ascendancy to be the first male ruler of Bhopal in a 100years. The gun is beautifully engraved ( for the period) has exquisite wood & has given me some wonderful australian water bufaloe hunts. I am new to the world of email machines,when I learn to post pictures I will send. |
