My new and first DsD, I know itÂ´s sideways but I am ok with that!

Hi guys!

There was a rather large gun auction this weekend localy and I think that I struck gold.

What do you think?

ItÂ´s a Renato Meganon, A italy made O/u in 9,3x74R regulated for the 286 grains Oryx Norma bullet, single selective trigger, and there are rings that will fit the clawmounts. Selective ejectors as well

In the case there are also a set of 20/76 barrels that are 1/2 and 1/4 chocked.

Price was decent about 4000 USD.

This is my first double but most likly not my last.

HUSKY , congratulations, that is a fine looking double rifle, even if it had it's barrels bent around the wrong way!

It is really a nice rifle, and with a pair of shoty tubes as well! $4K is a bargain!

I will remember your offer, you are not interested in a Husqvarna model 410 a Dsd in 450 BPE with a set of 12/65 gauge shotgun barrels, itÂ´s in need of some TLC but will give a loving owner som good vibrations?

I have a solid connection to such a gun.

Best regards Chris.

I used to have a model 410 Husky double rifle chambered for 9.3X74R, and I wish I had it back. It wasn't a ROYAL grade by any means, but it was a good strong rifle,working rifle, that shot well!

Did you sell your Husqvarn model 410 through Chadicks back around 1993? I couldn't scrape up the $'s at the time, but found one in Sweden a few years ago.

Drool, drool, drool, if you shoot it gangster style you could say its a sbs. Nice looking gun though, even if the barrels were installed sideways.

You can borrow money, but you can't borrow time. Don't wait, go now.

Sorry I didn't get back to this string earlier, but i just noticed your question today!

No I didn't sell the Husky through Chadick's, but to an individual, back in the late 80s. That was one of three Husky 410s I've owned over the years, and they were all good shooters. They're not fancy, but i wish I could find another one in good shape, because I've been sorry ever since I sold the last one I had!
