Gents,
does anybody have or shot a double rifle in 45-70?
I just came across a rifle that is manufactured by a company called Siacearmi in Italy,anybody have any experience with this make of rifles?
I have so much stuff lying around for a 45 caliber rifle that I am tempted!

Roscoe,
I am going to call the factory direct & see what they quote me on a working rifle & what they are regulated at?
If the price is reasonable & I guess I am thinking about what the Chapuis 9.3's cost,then I am going to get my hands on one

You might want to call Dewings Fly and Gun Shop in West Palm Beach Fla. They stock Siacce Rifles and shotguns. When Dewings has a Siacce rifle built they specify which Federal load to use for regulation so that American customers can get ammo easily. I've handled several Siacces at their store and while they are not English best guns, they are pretty nice for the $'s.

I tried to get - through Dewings - Siacce to make me a rifles 12ga for deer hunting in no rifle zones but they wouldn't do it. Some Italian tax reason. I'd snap one up quick if possible.

Here's Dewings, good luck.

I have owned and shot two Pedersoli 45-70 doubles. These rifles are accurate, easy on the shoulder, inexpensive to shoot, effective on game and very nicely built guns. The one I own now is for sale. It is in excellent condition with factory case, sling and 20 gauge barrels. The sale price is $3,500.00.

Perry,
thanks for the offer,Pedersoli are fine guns,I am just not into hammer rifles much anymore.

ROSCOE,
that's not too bad a price for a base working gun.

Bal,

Based on your past performances, you need to go UP in caliber. A 577 would round out your existing 9.3X74 and 470 NE battery quite nicely. And you would never be wanting for firewood. Wink

A 9.3x74R for $4,000 that isn't half bad.

Bass Pro has several of the Lusso grade guns available right now.

I have a relationship with SIACE and have several guns on order and can get others but remember the lead time is about 6 months.
Right now I have the following 3 guns still available (delivery should be May/June):

Alaska Lusso 45-70, with ejectors, double articulated triggers, and a traditional cheek piece/stock. One with a case colored action and one in antique silver. $5400

Alaska Std, 45-70, ejectors, articulated double triggers, traditional cheek piece, one available with case colored action. $4600

A 30% deposit will hold the gun. Balance due when I am ready to ship to your dealer. Cost includes excise, duty, and shipping to your dealer (first 48 states, AK and HI is a little more). 3% discount for check or cash. Note also the price listed above from SIACE does include ejectors
