Rigby abandoned the Bissell rising bite just before WWI, so of course a gun this late wouldn't have it.

There actually has been one Rigby made with a bissel rising bite in the last 30(or 40) years afaik, the guy who made it died earlier this year.

Yes, I'm aware of one built recently on an action found in back of a London shop. The action was 100 years old, not new, and the gun wasn't being finished by Rigby. The point I was making is that Rigby hasn't used that action in 90+ years, which is why you wouldn't expect to see it on a rifle built after WWI.
