Description
Rigby L61R Safari Rifle chambered in 458 Winchester Magnum. This rifle shows an excellent bore with strong rifling and shows beautiful bluing with the slightest amount of wear on the top of the receiver. Overall this is an excellent example of a handcrafted Rigby.
Today, just as was done a century ago, barrelled actions are supplied by Mauser to Rigby, then assembled into superb hand-finished rifles by master craftsmen at the Rigby workshop in London. Like the originals, these rifles carry London proof marks. Many aspects of the original rifle, including the much admired and copied extractor and the three-position flag safety, have been retained.
