Hi all,

I'm debating on the options for a custom single shot. I really like the looks of the Luxus rifles, but Im exploring all options.

Basically I cant afford a tricked out Martini and Hagn custom rifle, even their base model with no extras. However I was thinking I could have a rifle built around their action thats more in my budget.

So my question is can I just purchase an action from the company? And if so what would the price be approximately? Ive emailed them to ask but havnt recevied a reply, I presume due to the Easter holidays. I have seen other rifles from other 'smiths with Hagn actions so I'm presuming it is possible.

Thanks!

Dont over look Bailey Bradshaw he does it all makes the gun, does the custom stock work and last but not least also does the engraving.

Thanks Larry, I have got in touch with Bailey regarding his Farq action!

The prices for their actions are on their website.

I decided to build a custom single shot and even acquired an action. Luckily for me, I found Bailey b/4 I spent any more money. The Hagn is very nice, but only Bailey builds a Bradshaw. You will not be disappointed.

Matabele - I sent you a PM

Not in the same category, but a Ruger No 1 or 3 can make a pretty nice budget custom build.

My guess is that Butch Searcy would also send you one of his stalking rifle actions.

Thanks for the replies everyone, just back in town from some work and catching up on the fourms.

Grenadier gave me the contact info for Martin Hagn so I've asked him direct, and Bailey has replied and is working on a quote to give me.

For sure Mike the Ruger action is a great one, I'm just exploring the options first to see what Im in for $ wise. I may even just shell out for a Hagn and sit on it until I have the funds for the rest of the rifle and work. The things we do for our addiction

Subsailor Im going to do a little researching on the Searcy action now, thanks!

The Hagn is the absolute finest modern hunting rifle action made. It is in a class by itself...

SDH I read the post on the making of that rifle...that's art no doubt about it!

Couple of questions. How do you find the recoil with the steel buttplate? And do you find it slips or moves around at all on the shoulder?

Secondly do you mind posting a close up of the front sight, if you have one? Im debating between an octagonal to round and oct barrel, and just wondering what the front sight options are.

Thansk for posting, beautiful gun!
