After being Blaser enthusiast for a long time, I went off the reservation today and bought a Merkel B3 in 9.3x74. I'll post pictures when it gets here.

Jeff, was that from Guns of the South? I saw he reduced them by $500. I had one in 30-06, but the 9.3x74R is the one to have. Great little double-carbines!

Yes, it's from Guns of the South, and the gunbroker price ISN'T in stone. Wink

Also, he doesn't have scope mounts, but I bought an Innomount off Ebay for the B3 that fits a Swarovski rail scope.

I'm pretty heavily vested in Blasers (R93 Pro, BBF97, and a S2), but I've never had any trouble selling Blaser stuff either.

I think the B3 is going to be a fun gun to exterminate pigs with.

Mac, why on earth would you assume ANYTHING with the name Blaser on it would be a "proper" rifle of any type, regardless of the fact this one's barrels are 90 degrees out of alignment. Maybe there is something to that OSR thing after all. Something seriously bad happened to this one.

TURD is actually pretty fitting in this case since Mr Williams only came to this thread to talk shit.

DANG Biebs, that is one very nice stick of wood on that rifle.

Jeff, you will really like the 9,3x74R calibre. I have killed a lot of game with the 9,3x74R, including bears, giraffe, cape buffalo, and elephant.

Hey Todd,

Have you been in the Czech country ? Just a few miles away you could visit the Blaser factory patriot
