IIRC Base price of basic model is $12,995.00. Nitro "Man is a predator or at least those of us that kill and eat our own meat are. The rest are scavengers, eating what others kill for them."

If I Recall Correctly. New K-Guns run around $12K and I have seen some lightly used ones sell for about $8K recently. Hope that helps. | |||

Let me beat the "regulars" to the punch by saying that the K gun is a POS and that the decocking device will get you killed. Typical German over engineering of a problem that does not exist. H&H had it right 100 years ago, and BTW the 1911 cannot be improved. I will take it off his hands for $7000 at considerable risk to my life and limb (from my wife, not an ele or buff). Peter.

Won't work Peter. The picking flyshit out of pepper brigade will soon be here to re-execute that dead horse... USN (ret) DRSS Verney-Carron 450NE Cogswell & Harrison 375 Fl NE Sabatti Big Five 375 FL Magnum NE DSC Life Member NRA Life Member | |||

I would be quite happy to win a Kreighoff double anything. I'd even make a good home for one of the now-despised Sabattis. There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t. – John Green, author | |||

Geez Dave you are quick on the trigger! For the record I own, and love, my K-gun in 500/416 and my Blaser S2 500NE, both of which are considered anathema to the purists.

Love my K-gun .470. Taken buff, ele, and even an 80-yard impala. The cocking safety is no isse at all. ______________________ RMEF Life Member SCI DRSS Chapuis 9,3/9,3 + 20/20 Simson 12/12/9,3 Zoli 7x57R/12 Kreighoff .470/.470 We band of 9,3ers! The Few. The Pissed. The Taxpayers. | |||

..................  There is no reason to blast the K-gun, but..............The S-2 Now that's a zebra of a different stripe! Dave your skin must be rawhide by now after letting people know you have a Blaser S-2, and actually like it! It seems though Peter's TIC post seems to have gotten through the tough rawhide skin! Just kidding you buddy! Bring that water pipe double down to the Texas Hoot & Shoot,and let me shoot it! I'll even bite my tongue instead of speaking about it!  ....Mac >>>===(x)===> MacD37, ...and DUGABOY1 DRSS Charter member "If I die today, I've had a life well spent, for I've been to see the Elephant, and smelled the smoke of Africa!"~ME 1982 Hands of Old Elmer Keith  | |||

I don't know about yours, but my Krieghoff .470 double gun is priceless! When you get bored with life, start hunting dangerous game with a handgun. | |||
