Indians For Guns

She arrived the day before, after a long wait and an equally long road trip, but in the end it was worth every night spent sleepless and each day spent dreaming, its been 36 years since my dad sprang the locks again on an oak and leather case, the look on his face was one i'll never forget ....this is truly one of those rifles that conjure visions....my own double, chambered in a cartridge of legend, and one that is closest to my heart..

Good lord! Hearty congratulations,Zubin. Absolutely great looking rifle.

Now, off with the details.The back ground, make,calibre, the story behind it etc etc.

Thanks Gaurav! You're more than welcome to come and see it in person in Pune, I admire your Rigby, I once passed up a superb cased .470 Rigby with a rising bite, I love the big heavies and personally feel that once you've been bitten, there's no turning back!
