To bad folks got irritated but the topic is fascinating-- what Huvius previously seems to have great merit and may be the key to success vs competing in the same fashion as other gunbuilders making fine firearms--

Sinner and others may disagree but consider--

If others are making guns with old world technology can components be prepped better and labor$$ and time with CNC technology?? Do Merkel and Heym use modern CNC technology?

It would be interesting to check with some engineers cordinating with Double makers to see how much things could be prepped and what monies actually saved--

If substantial savings could be made then one could take an aggressive approach and have some investor with substantial CNC assets obtain the talent to prep the parts and send them to London for final finishing and assembly prior to sale.Quite proper to finish the London gun in London!!

I think such a company making SXS shotguns and Doubles with the same treated frames/recievers(like Merkel)could have 3 grades of product and do nicely with the Rigby name.Of course more revenue would come from a ? Hunting clothing line than the guns themselves.Its easier to buy clothes than guns.

Getting talented craftsmen would be a critical issue but made attractive in the states with company benfits of retirement, health insurance, gun discounts,and other "perks" private gunmakers could not duplicate. Your not talking about a turkish knockoff here but a quality gun.Close talented coordination via the internet could be done to maintain QC standards for the final assemblers with the highest level of talent in London.

If the modern machinery and trained talent could be pooled and a high quality product delivered at the entrylevel, midlevel, and "best" level, the Rigby name would do the rest--

Could it actually be done?? Only pencil pushers could answer that.
It would be great fun to watch happen!!!
