About a year or so back, there was a big splash about the Rigby rifle being built in London. Does anyone know if they ever produced a double or if they are still in business?

Dave, re my post below in this section of AR about the 'new' US based Rigby, I recently looked at the London Rigby website and it has an announcement that the Managing Director Mark Neal has passed away and the website is disabled. RIP Mr. Neal.

PSmith,
Yes, but the web site said that it was TEMPORARILY SHUT DOWN, FOR RESPECT TO THE LOSS OF MR. NEAL. Naturally, I know nothing else about this matter.
