Rising Block DR in action videos

Very interesting, thanks for posting.
 
Impressive craftsmanship! Congratulations for a beautiful piece and some clever engineering. It seems that with this breech system, a double could hardly ever get off the face, right?

Correct, there would have to be considerable wear for that to happen.
 
Have you made any rising block rifles in cartridges such as 300 Flanged, 8x57 Rimmed or 9.3x74R?

Thanks as always for posting up here. I really like your design and your work!

Thank you. I enjoy this forum.
I am building a rising block double in 30R blaser right now. I have a 9.3X74R coming up next.

Here is a picture of the 30R blaser

Oh man. Just when I thought I was over the gun loon thing. :A Banana Sad:

@tarbe Once a gun loon always a gun loon. It is a curse or blessing depending on your point of view. For me it is a blessing.

@Bailey Bradshaw I really like the action and the ability to interchange barrels. You do good work and thank you for posting here.
the 9.3x74 is one of my favourite rounds. I also think that a 7x57R and 450/400 set would be a wonderful pairing.
 
My my. What a magnificent double barrel rifle . May l ask what's the largest calibre you make these in ? .600 Nitro Express calibre ?

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
