Re: Early Mauser Oberndorf takedown by Dickson and Sons

Quote:
The point I was trying to make is that the gun was sold to Dickson as a takedown. And Rigby did not use that sort of system. In Rigby's system the forend was inletted for a takedown lever.
Not on such very early Rigby takedowns. I have once seen another very early Rigby takedown in .303 on a short intermediate, slant magazine action from about 1902 with this side screw system. A few years later Rigby changed to their foreend latch system.
