Its interesting to speculate the chance of Rigby ending back on the right side of the pond that it should have never crossed in the first place.

On the other hand, for that to happen, Rigby America must close its doors, which as stated above, is disheartening that a maker shuts down, even if they are overpriced, renamed German actions with PacNor barrels.

Then, someone with an honest intent of building quality firearms must pick the name up for an astronomical price tag, move lock, stock, and barrels back to England, setup shop and re-aquaint the public of the Rigby name that was slightly blemished by the current owner.

I am American, and patriotism aside, some names just don't belong in America, Rigby happens to be one of those names.

500 is a nice round number, either followed by "Nitro Express" or by "cubic inch displacement".
