Price for new "Vintage Model" Rigby 416 beyond Rediculous!
      21/10/15 04:02 PM

Gents,

A couple weeks ago, NitoX posted some pictures of a newly made "Vintage Model" 416 in the Mauser Forum Photos and Archive. With the exception of not having a stripper clip slot in front of the single square bridge, this rifle is a dead ringer for a pre-war #5 model 416 Big Game rifle. Now, Rigby's hideous (In my opinion) standard models are being offered, here in the U.S., for about $15,000. The new Vintage model got me quite excited, so I contacted Rigby. The price list I was given today reveals that the Vintage model starts at $30,000! So, a traditional Mauser thumb cut-out in the left receiver wall, a lower grade wood stock with no cheek piece, and wrap around checkering, doubles the price?!!! I was very cordial in my response to my contact at Rigby, indicating that a vintage model is well beyond my means.
Matt
