BHE 16 gauge No rib roll stamp?

[Tim Ehlerding]

I’m looking to see if I can get any insight on the lack of inscription on the top rib of this Remington era gun

[Steve Huffman]

Beautifull gun wood is like wow! May I ask what caliber your 95 is?

[Bob Jurewicz]

I believe Rem Era guns did not have Rib Stamping.

Thank you! Yeah, the wood is gorgeous on this gun.
The 95 is a 1934 in the 405 WCF

Beautiful bird gun!!

Ribs with no legend began appearing on Remington made Parkers in the 240xxx serial number range and get more dominant from there to the end. Your gun is the lowest serial number I've recorded with no legend. My previous low was 240245.

Thanks Bob, I wasn’t sure if they stopped with the stamp inscription on them. I haven’t seen enough of them to be sure

[Phil Yearout]

Ohhh, pretty gun!

Thank you! It’s quite the joy in the field.

I’m glad that we can get another gun recorded. I thank you for your time and your knowledge.

Generally speaking, after the Parker operation was moved to the Remington plant in Ilion NY the rib inscription was dropped.

Holy smokes!

What can you tell us about the Rigby looking rifle in your cabinet?

[William Woods]

That old saying comes to mind; "A thing of beauty is a joy forever".

What can you tell us about the Rigby looking rifle in your cabinet?

It is a 2011 Heym “Express by Martini” in 375 H&H first year production.

Ralf Martini a well known fine gunmaker was commissioned by Heym in 2009 to design a new stock “a trim stock in the early English style” for the Heym Express bolt action rifle which was in full production by 2011 under the name “Heym Express by Martini”.

It’s the best handling and pointing rifle I’ve ever owned.

[Bill Murphy]

Wow, what a great rifle. Guys who spend all their time with side by sides don't get exposed to great gunsmiths like Martini. My Rigby .375 is a wonderful gun, but unfortunately not in the early style with short forearm and abbreviated stock. It was built for a late friend in 1969 for a planned tiger hunt that even a CIA Station Chief couldn't quite pull off. Rigby shipped the gun to Kabul and it went hunting a bit, but not for the then protected tigers. I try to keep my collector rifle collection up to date, but I'm in selling mode now. Thanks for the information and the pictures.
