I have a Sportwaffen 'Tyrol' .222 and would like a bit more info/history about the gun and company. Any help would be appreciated.

This is a link to the pictures Tyrol 222

Click on the pictures to make them full screen. They are large.

I'm sorry, I've never heard of the brand or the factory. Kufstein is a town on the Austrian/German border in the Austrian state of "Tyrol" - thus, I suppose, the names.

It looks like the gun has integral bases (and Weavers mounted on top), as well as a detachable magazine. The way the trigger is located in the guard makes it look like a single-set trigger (push forward to set). That would be pretty standard for an Austrian gun.

I thought it might be easier if we posted a couple of the pictures directly here...
