Was just reading an article about stalking rifles by Craig Boddington. He mentioned the sights on the cocking piece as being a Rigby trademark. Might confuse the uninitiated, make women flock to you, cause you to grow back your hair, and instantly be the most interesting person in the room. So take THAT into account as well....heheGood point!
The bolt mounted sight can be locked down, and the 16 has quite a strong ball detent but I'll keep it in mind

Gotta love it! Reminiscent of a project a teenage friend and I undertook building a cart from spare wagon, lawnmower and washing machine parts to build a Briggs Stratton/belt driven cart requiring two "men" to operate. The driver provided the brakes by dragging his feet and the motorman (who rode facing backward) operated the throttle and "Jake Brake" by shorting out the spark plug on command.I've tried to find some pictures of another "prototype" we built back in 84-85 somewhere, but those were Polaroid photos and seem to have disappeared.
For those of you, who like my kids, haven't got a clue what I'm talking about, we had a "magic box" with a little imp inside who draw a picture of what you pointed it at and delivered it from a slot in the front after a few seconds.
If you think that my disk sander is scary you would have had a heart attack from those pictures.
We built a motorcycle from a collapsible bike and a 40cc chainsaw.

My older cousin attached a hard rubber roller from some random farm equipment to the tip of the bar and we attached the saw to the bike with hose clamps so that the roller drove the rear wheel.
As a bike chain wouldn't fit the saw's sprockets we used a saw chain, not a new one, duh!, we were safety minded so we used an old rusty one from the scrap heap.
One hand on the handle bar and one on the throttle and away we went at warp speed, often with someone on the luggage carrier.
For a glorious afternoon we were bikers, then we were discovered and the bike impounded

I'd rather see a moose in the sidecar! Nice rides, all.
Beautiful country, thanks for sharing your hunt, Ryden.

Ural's are tough machines. I've been looking into getting one of their two wheel drive models.
