Hero of Kumaon - Jim Corbett's book and .275 Mauser Rifle
Posted by Lydia Unwin on
The rifle used by Jim Corbett, owned by Rigby & Co. It was a .275 Mauser presented to him in 1907 for killing the Champawat man-eater. A fascinating memento of an extraordinary man, as documented in Hero of Kumaon by Duff Hart-Davis.
