Drillings, Double Rifles, and Rifles

Click for more photos $3600 CONTACT Alternate Pictures	Merkel combo in 12g. over 6.5x57R - one of my favorite deer cartridges! Category: Drillings, Double Rifles, and Rifles Gauge: 12 gauge	GunID: 2611 Serial: 58925
	Proofed in August of 1963 this well made gun has excellent bores and is very tight. The double under bite lockup also has the double Kirsten barrel extensions that Merkel is famous for on its higher grade guns. The 6.5x57R round is one of my favorites as it is low recoil and fast and accurate. Based on the 8mm Mauser case this round can be purchased or easily reloaded. It is similar to the 257 Roberts but was invented by the Germans at least 20 years earlier!

	Built in approximately 1894 this Scottish classic is one of the most beautiful single shots we have ever had in the shop. Fraser was known for his single shot rifles and this is a wonderful example of his top of the line take down rifle. The falling block side lever operates as if it is butter lubricated. The bore is bright with sharp rifling and showing little wear. The last owner said the rifle shot excellent! *Note this cartridge is the same as the 400-360 Purdey.

	Nice bore on this wonderful little English rifle. I am looking up the records with Purdey's to get some of the history on this classic and will add what I learn as soon as I get the information. The scope bases can be removed and replaced but I am curious if anyone recognizes these existing bases? It would be nice to have a set of rings fitted.

	This rifle may show as being quite dark and over used but surprisingly the bore is very nice and the wood is solid and engraving not worn hardly at all. It is just dark. I took the gun out in the sun and I could see through the old dark finish that it was well figured and really quite beautiful. If this rifle could tell stories it is certain it would recount many tiger hunts in the Himalayan foot hills . Tiger hunting was at one time the sport of Kings.

	This little Holland with its rounded action is really a rifle of elegance and beauty. The rifling is strong with some pitting forward of the chamber but then cleans up bright and crisp all the way to the muzzle. It is getting much harder for us to find original examples like this.

	This gun has seen use but still has lots of life left in it. The shotgun bores have a little frosting but are basically bright and the rifle bore is bright with strong rifling. This is a very functional drilling at a price where one can afford to hunt with it.
