Some more eye-candy from Don S. This is his 400-350 Rigby Mauser. Let's wait for more information from him.

Once again, thank you Mehul. This is a Rigby built in 1908 using a 1906 Mauser square bridge stepped ring magnum action with slanted magazine designed special for Rigby's 400/350 flanged round. This round was the predecessor to the famous Rigby 350 Magnum. The rifle is all original and matching. I believe the stock was also made by Mauser because it is stamped with both Mauser and Rigby serial numbers. Enjoy.

Don,

I am curious about whether the rifles have hidden crossbolts or do not have them at all. Didn't Rigby fit three instead of the two that other gunmakers fitted on their rifles?

Thanks for the information in advance and thanks for the pictures again.

Mehul: The 303 and 350 are not crossbolted, but I have seen 416's that were.

Another lovely rifle.
