I think you guys may be surprised at the market for Bissel action Rigby. The Rifle has to go back to England at some time for proofing and case colouring, probably engraving although there are a number of extremely good non Brit engravers.

Like everything else, being expensive, if the quality is there, is not a detriment. I think that is where the Mexican Rigby fails. They tried to make a middle of the road gun the easy way. If they would have stuck with only high priced, quality side locks they may have made the reputation they needed in California. They didn't and they are in trouble because they did not understand DR rifle buyers or the market.

The Rigby name still packs a lot of punch. I think that they are still coasting on it. It would not take much to turn it around but the present owners could not ever do it. Only new owners and a new attitude could.

Fun to talk about.
