Is Rigby really an Irish company? Given their moving shop to England over a hundred years ago I am not sure it can still be classed as an Irish maker. Most Rigby shotguns one might run into are more than likely not Irish made.

Yes they are a quality maker through their history, though seemingly more rifle focused.

Even your tongue and cheek example is a London gun.

As for the question of quality points for an Irish made shotgun vs other shotguns, I believe they are the same as any British made, Continental made, or American made gun.
