Heym Factory Tour and Activities

This is an excellent opportunity to see first-hand how fine hunting rifles are manufactured. Allow us to inspire you with the craftsmanship of gunsmiths, stock makers and regulators.

The operational management will show all the steps that are necessary for the production of a hunting rifle: from barrel making and hammering to assembly and fine tuning of the system, all the way to stock design and manufacture by hand. Of course, all weapons are finally regulated and test fired in our in-house shooting range.

Bock,

We received our invitation for the 2013 event and are looking forward to participating again with Heym during this upcoming event. Thanks for posting this information for all to review regarding the Second Heym Challenge (2013) being held in Germany. The 2013 event promises to be very exciting!

For those who may not have attended, I have provided a link that summarizes some highlights and photographs from last year’s First Heym Challenge.

Best always,
Shawn

Nice write up. Thanks for sharing (that Holland clone sounds very interesting).

Glad you enjoyed the article. The new boxlock I mentioned is something I would highly recommend checking out if you have interest in another double. And who doesn’t fit into that category? :0)

Shawn

Nice report Shawn and a pleasure to meet you. As you probably know one of your caps is now going to some nice places

The pleasure was all mine. I enjoyed meeting you and your wife and really enjoyed both of your company during the Heym event. Pat sends her best by the way. I heard that the SCI Helvetia Chapter event you organized was very successful. Congratulations!

I did see that our logo cap has been making the rounds in many countries. It is quite a popular item. People really seem to like what the logo represents. I also saw that your wife has sent in some interesting photos of places she has traveled with our cap.

I should post something up on our Facebook page and post peoples pictures with the cap on hunts or in interesting places. Send me a PM when you have time and we can discuss releasing any of your images on our FB page regarding this topic.

We are looking forward to seeing you both in Vegas. I hope you are taking good care of my car :0). Hey best of luck on your upcoming hunt in Tanzania!

Cheers Bwana,
Shawn

For the many who have requested it, I have added a few more pictures about the 4 bore/Heym .577 NE demonstration. I also put together a video but it was not HD and the quality was poor so for now I hope this will suffice. If I put a video together later I will update this post.

Thanks,
Shawn
