I have just received details of my rifle from the Rigby ledgers
Built for Captain E Berry
Mauser sporting Best { the word Best is written in the ledger }
14.25" stock
25 " Barrel
Completion / delivery Sept 2 1902

I have searched the the Imperial War Museum records and have found 3 Captain E Berry

1 73 infantry Brigade
2 The Staffordshire regiment
3 Royal army Vet corps
which one I don't know

Cool. 1902 is so long ago and Boer War years and pre WW1.
