Are both triggers set triggers? NRA Life ASSRA Life DRSS Today's Quote: Give a man a fish and he eats for a day.

We should begin a pool here: how long until Scutulatus post with "photos of my second double." Cheers and nice rifle.

You are going to really enjoy that beauty!  D/R Hunter Correct bullet placement, combined with the required depth of bullet penetration, results in an anchored animal... | |||

Too true, I figure he has about 12 months max. I sometimes wish I had never seen the Hallowell, Schwandt, Barnett, or Champlin websites, or looked at the VCs and Heyms at DSC/SCI. I'd probably have a stock portfolio or something. That Springer is a very fine looking rifle, built in the 'Golden Age' as George Caswell calls it.

Scutulatus, I envy you that little jewel! Welcome to the DRSS, and as others have already said, that wont be your last double rifle, but you started with a very nice one, in a very usable caliber! ...................................................................  ....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 am going to write Springer for any details they have. Morris said they prob have the whole works on the build. 470NE Searcy 9.3X74r Johann Springer | |||

That Springer was an excellent buy! It was one of Morris' personal rifles and I don't think he had a habit of keeping any duds. My first double rifle was a Springer too. Still have it. IMO, Johann Springer was one of the best of the European makers. | |||
