I seem to remember buying both of my .375 H&H rifles in the same year, just because they appeared on the horizon close together. My favorite is an original London Rigby ordered by a good friend and shooting buddy who had an illustrious career that included duty as CIA Station Chief in Kabul during the Russian difficulty. He sold it to me shortly before his health declined and not long before his death. I have pictures of him standing over a Gaur, holding the Rigby, and also have his written request for a tiger hunt when he was stationed in New Delhi. Unfortunately, tiger hunting was off the map at that time, even for spooks and diplomats. All factory correspondence is intact and very detailed and interesting.
