Subtlety kills !!! What was that about Rigby ?

I was discussing Rigby's with a US Mate one day (he was cursing) and he said that the US market
now defines Rigby's as such.

"TRUE" Rigbys built up to when Paul Roberts took over. The (Sidelocks) are split into
- Rigby Bissell Rising 3rd bite Sidelocks
- POST Rigby Bissell Rising 3rd bite Sidelocks - ie Webeley's
- The rest

Then you have "Paul Roberts' Rigby's" which can be split into early and late.
The you have the "US Made Rigby's", commonly known as MEXICAN Rigby's !!!
The last comment about "MEXICAN'S" cracked me up when he said it.

He aslo commented that the Value of "TRUE" Rigbys, particulalry the
Rigby Bissell Rising 3rd bite Sidelocks went up when the US purchase went through.

I also talk to Robin Brown of A.A.Brown & Sons reasonably often - he makes fine guns
and the AA Browns are VERY undervalued (IMHO). What was that about Westley Richards ?

In my last conversation with Robin, I commented on the "London" "Birmingham" snobbery.
and said I often ask people where Stanton, Brazier Ashes locks come from !!! So much for
BEST guns being made in London !!!

It just wouldn't do to have "Coventry" on the locks, would it ?!?!

Have you seen Dallas's Holland book ?
The page where he states that every Holland made prior to 1892 or 3 (somewhere around here)
was made by ?W & C Scott? or one of this crowd of brothers.

Anyway, will await your interesting response.
