I wouldn't want to be one who bought a BG and then Rigby goes and improves the line on subsequent rifles. Nobody would ever buy your gun if that happened.

I have no idea of their cost structures but the Vintage model is made at the London workshop and substantially hand made and the costs would be more than the Big Game model price could bear.

Price would certainly be part of the reason, but for every hundred Big Game model sold, my guess is only a small handfull of Vintage models would be commissioned.

I could say why the BG model is styled like it is, but that would breach a confidence.

The Big Game model by any unbiased account has been very successful, and outsold expectations. Many of their competitors must have lost sales as a result. One reason we see attacks on them by competitors.

I have no irons in this, I like Marc and I like it the Rigby name has been resurrected with good quality rifles.
