We've featured the "Big Game" model before on NE. It has been a huge success since its release and buyers have been showing their enthusiasm for the modern John Rigby "Big Game" rifle.

Rigby has kindly supplied NitroExpress.com with a couple of albums of photos of two of their "London Best" rifles. Custom made rifles from their UK workshop.

The "Shikar" rifle is the first I am posting, and represents the quality of rifle and the desires and themes wanted by its commissioner and owner. The comments and desciptions accompanying the photos are wholly my own. While the engraving probably means the rifle won't be used hard and often in the bush - but who knows its new owner's intentions - like many heavily engraved rifles it represents a work of art. Art fo art's sake can be a high ideal. And this one with a wonderfully comprehensive theme. I have used some imagination when describing the 'story' in the engraving.
