It's actually been on there for two weeks. I have been coveting it, but I decided to spend the money on trophy fees and use the bolt gun I already have. | |||

Honestly, Bulldog, do you really think WE could answer that? An email to the seller will get you your answer. 577NitroExpress Double Rifle Shooters Society Francotte .470 Nitro Express If stupidity hurt, a lot of people would be walking around screaming... | |||

Sounds to me like somebody either died or needed crack money real bad. | |||

I thought someone may have already done so or maybe knew something about this rifle... If it is as described then that is one hell of a deal. Nice wood too. Someone should buy it if all checks out. | |||

A MAIN point here. If you buy the rifle, if history is any indicator, Butch will inspect it and if anything is wrong, fix it - and probably for ZERO dollars. I would normally tell anyone who is buying a double rifle to have it inspected by JJ. But this time, you can't do it. It HAS to go to Butch. He built it. He knows what it should and shouldn't do. This is a great deal for a nice double. 577NitroExpress Double Rifle Shooters Society Francotte .470 Nitro Express If stupidity hurt, a lot of people would be walking around screaming... | |||

WoW! That is a hell of a deal and one beautiful piece of wood. I agree, if there is anything wrong with it Butch will make it right. 465H&H | |||

This rifle was sold to a guy in S.C. On another topic. Some of you may remember that a few yrs. ago I tried using a RSA shop to make some PH model rifles. This project failled miserably. In the last month I have had the four rifles I received completly rebuilt. They are now ready for restocking. I have three left to sell at $9580.00. If ordered now I can have the stocks made to fit. These rifles will have the same support from me as all my rifles. | |||

Didn't anyone look closely at the rifle in the pictures? Unless the picture is backwards, that is a left handed rifle!

Mac, You are right! It is a left hand model, you can read Butch's logo on the inside of the case! Doc52 B.

Missippian: Looks like you can get the same gun, BUT WITH THE STOCK MADE TO FIT, for just a few hundred bucks more! If you are worried about lead time on stocking it, just give Butch a call. Or, Bill Soverns (who posts here under the same name), who is now stocking rifles for Butch, might be able to give you the lead time. Those are good prices for that rifle. 577NitroExpress Double Rifle Shooters Society Francotte .470 Nitro Express If stupidity hurt, a lot of people would be walking around screaming... | |||

I must be getting old. Tell me again how you can tell that it is a left handed rifle. Looks like the thumbpad is on the left side, which would be a right handed rifle | |||

No cheek piece on the left side of the gun. This is an assumption based upon knowledge that Butch has cheek pieces on his stocks. 577NitroExpress Double Rifle Shooters Society Francotte .470 Nitro Express If stupidity hurt, a lot of people would be walking around screaming... | |||

Searcy's support is the best!!!!  I bought a used 470 underlever from a dealer. After firing it few rounds noticed some difficulties with the trigger/firing and ejectors. I shipped it to Butch for inspection and repair---they replaced the worn springs etc. at no charge!! The best service I have ever seen!!!! I will buy my next double from them.  nothin sweeter than the smell of fresh blood on your hunting boots | |||

That is not the only indication! The triggers are left hand configuration as well! The forward trigger is on the left, and the rear trigger is on the right! I looked hard at this rifle, and if it had been a right hand rifle I might have bought it, eventhough I already have a 470NE double. ....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 | |||

Safari Arms has a similar RH rifle for $8500. I can't believe these have not sold. ****************************************************************** R.

No I have not. I suggest you have Butch take a look at it before final payment is made. I doubt anything is wrong...but if there is something Butch will find it. ****************************************************************** R.

Butch told me this rifle had sold. I found it about a hour and a half drive from my house. I might consider buying it tomorrow, but can't justify $9500 . Somebody talk me into this. | |||

Go handle it. That's all you need to do and you'll be pulled into the DR abyss...

Since a new one costs $10.5K and since the prices are always going up, you only stand to make money on the rifle in the long run. | |||
