Paying homage to iconic British adventurer Karamojo Bell, London gunma

model of their much-lauded Highland Stalker rifle. The big game hunter is oft remembered as an advocate for accurate shot placement using

smaller calibre rifles, a technique he perfected by the dissection and study of the skulls of elephants he shot, namely with his Rigby Mauser 7x57.

The limited run of just 50 rifles is the first model in Rigby’s new Heritage Series, which will form part of a collector’s series over the coming years.

Based on the original 1928 Rigby rifle design, on the magazine floorplate is the engraving of ‘W.D.M.B’, as per Bell’s original rifle. Plus, the rifle has

a Rigby spoon bolt-handle and Mauser flag safety, just like Bell’s.

Similarly, the rifle features a Mauser 98 action, as well as an ivorine front foresight and custom design rear half-moon sight, regulated at

100, 300 and 400 yards, as per the original rifle. It also comes with a spare interchangeable standard Rigby rear sight regulated at 65, 150 and

250 yards.

Presented in a limited edition vintage-style canvas case, the rifle comes with a limited edition print of the Rigby ledger book where Bell’s gun is

listed, a Rigby knife and a copy of Incidents from an Elephant Hunter’s Diary, a new collection of previously unpublished stories by Bell, signed by all

the Rigby gunmakers involved in the production of the rifle.

The rifle is available in .275 Rigby, as per Bell’s original rifle.

RRP: £14,950 excl. VAT
