What you shot with it so far? I've been thru a couple of small-caliber doubles and I keep going back to the idea the Krieghoff is the one I want...nice if I could find one with a single trigger as I'm still working on a trip to Europe. DB Bill aka Bill George | |||

You might talk to Dale and see if you can get in on the Chapuis griup buy. You can get a new one for half the price of a used Kreghoff. ****************************************************************** R.

I owned the S-2 and I think I would own an over under if I ever buy another 9.3x74R. I have seen some nice Merkels and Suhl/Ferlach rifles for under $10K. | |||

Not to hijack the thread, and by no means do I want to offend D99, but the photo he posted above shows how not to hold a double rifle when shooting. Your forward hand should actually grip the barrels when you squeeze the trigger, not just the forend as shown above. Not doing this, especially on the larger bores, may find you pulling off the forend of the rifle. Again, no criticism with D99 - just an opportunity to point out proper DR handling. 577NitroExpress Double Rifle Shooters Society Francotte .470 Nitro Express If stupidity hurt, a lot of people would be walking around screaming... | |||

Fully agree with you. This is the best and fatest way to be injured on shooting double express rifle. ------------------ BER007 Keep the faith in any circumstances ------------------------ BBER007@HOTMAIL.COM | |||

I agree about the hand position, but in our friend D99's defense, I submit that his hand hold is perfectly adequate to deal with the recoil of a 9.3X74R from a double. There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t. – John Green, author | |||

those Merkels are popular over in Sweden for driven hunts and so, because theyre are vere flexible and fine to mount scopes on and theyre cheaper used than S/S doubles. The largest i have seen a picture of is one .458 win mag, perhaps with a little work that could have been a fine .450 NE 3 1/4 inch. | |||

SNOOTY BASTARDS! I wanted to take photos of the rifle before I sold it. I have really acidic finger prints and I didn't want to put marks on the barrels. I know that R93's have Titanium Nitrated barrels not sure about the rest of the line. Anyway, me not touching the barrels kept me from cleaning it later. You cant see it from the photos, but my balcony was 50 yards from the Atlantic ocean. Had enough problems, my new "stainless" shotgun looked like a rusted fork. | |||
