The decline of western civilization.
The Janet Reno of the firearms world.
I'd rather join PETA than hunt/shoot one of these.
The Lady GaGa of the firearms world.
After several years of cosmetic surgery these rifles and Michael Jackson had the same end result.
These rifles are the emetic of the firearms industry.
First cousins with Blaser?
Perhaps I'm not making myself clear….

Magnificently repugnant - grotesque... faint

Correct bullet placement, combined with the required depth of bullet penetration, results in an anchored animal...

I have heard form those who have handled these rifles at shows that they are amazing pieces of machinery. I would be curious to know how one has performed in the field.

Their double is over-engineered like a Rube Goldberg contraption. It is a glowing example of unnecessarily making something more complex than it should be or needs to be.

Simplicity is the essence of a double gun or rifle.

Look at their Humming Bird - double rifle in 17 HMR weighing 7.7 lbs!
