Shikari Rifle

[Garciamarquez1918]

I have one on order but haven't ever actually seen one! Was hoping to see one at DSC but sadly they didn't have one. Anybody on here who has one who would share some images? I'm especially interested in the tops of the barrels -- what the engraving looks like. Do they have the company name in gothic script etc? Thanks in advance.

I’ll try and get some pictures of the standard script on top of the barrels for you.

Here are some pics of my Shikari, it is at UK customs right now if everything went according to plan.

I think @Houston Bill should have his Shakiri in hand by now, or should be getting very close to taking delivery..

Wha???? No Shikari rifles at the Rigby booth, not a one? That was one of my primary desires of this trip to Nashville, to be able to actually hold and look one over in person. I’m such a big Rigby fan, their bolt rifles and all vintage offerings, but want to see and hold one of the Shikari before I could even consider ordering one. And chance of running into one around town is totally nonexistent.

Huge bummer. I’ll still have to talk with them about one, but actual order will have to wait a bit I guess, until I run into one somewhere or we visit England, which is likely sooner than the other.

How far out is your Shikari order, at this point I know there are folks expecting one within the next year or closer to 5+. Exciting regardless.

Cheers.

Wait is 6 years hence not displaying them for new orders.

I talked to them a week ago 6 years from order is the number now. I’m out with that kind of wait.
