John

The " Vintage" Model is, I will wager a reacton to the fact they had a wonderful opportunity to do something really special, and simply got it wrong.

Everyone is saying why "didnt you just copy the originals"

All they had to do was COPY the original models, and the hundred or so they have sold would have been five hundred!!!.

I think they get that now.

As for your comments about steel and wood, Ive had my share of 100 year old Rigby rifles, all without broken stocks, and as for the "beefier" barrel than in an original 416….well I doubt you have ever handled one of the original 175 ..or so made, or you would know that is simply BS!……..or marketing talk...if you like.

Yes, I have seen and handled the new one, not a bad rifle by any means, but as their reaction suggests, they didnt do it quite right.

Price…who cares, if you like it buy it

Best
Eric
