30,000 Euro Porn Gun

But why are the triggers designed like that? Are they a set trigger?
 
I have only handled one in my entire life and it was at Furtscheggers in Innsbruck. I actually do not remember the why.
 
But why are the triggers designed like that? Are they a set trigger?

It is a set trigger system, by pushing the rear tigger forward the set / hair trigger is engaged & can be released by then pushing both triggers forward or by actually firing the rifle ie squeezing the two triggers backwards.

Key Theme: "Rauhnacht"​

  • Rauhnacht (or Rauhnächte) refers to the "Rough Nights" or Twelve Nights around Christmas/New Year in Germanic/Austrian folklore. This period is strongly linked to the Wild Hunt (Wilde Jagd), led by Wotan/Wodan(Odin) and involving wild, chaotic spirits, ghosts, animals, and primal beings.
  • The engravings and overall design draw from this pagan/wild folklore, incorporating satyr-like goat-man figures(or equivalent "wild man"/primal horned/lustful beings) in dramatic, often explicit scenes. This explains the "very wild" erotic content with the goat-man having sex with women—mythological/fantasy eroticism blended with Germanic Wild Hunt/Wotan motifs.
These are not random pornographic additions but a cohesive artistic theme: primal, untamed nature, fertility/lust symbolism, and folklore. The satyr/goat-man serves as a stand-in for the wild, Dionysian/Wotan-associated spirits of the Rauhnacht.

Also WOTAN is Odin, but there is a hundreds if not thousands of years of separation between Norse Odin and Germanic Wotan.

The Wild Hunt (Wilde Jagd / Wütendes Heer / Odensjakt / Asgårdsrei / Oskoreia) is a powerful, widespread motif in European folklore, especially prominent in Germanic and Norse traditions. It depicts a spectral, nocturnal procession of riders, hunters, hounds, horses, and other beings thundering across the sky or landscape—often during midwinter storms—led most famously by Wotan/Wodan (the Germanic form of Odin).

This ties directly into your "Rauhnacht" Ferlach rifle: Rauhnacht (or Rauhnächte) refers to the "Rough Nights," the liminal twelve nights from Christmas to Epiphany (roughly Dec 25–Jan 6), when the boundaries between worlds thin and the Wild Hunt is most active in folklore. The rifle's name and engravings (including primal goat-man/satyr figures in wild, erotic scenes) evoke this chaotic, mythological atmosphere.

Core Description and Leadership​

The Hunt is a ghostly cavalcade of the dead, restless spirits, fallen warriors, land spirits, or supernatural beings. It features:

  • Horses (sometimes multi-legged or with fiery eyes).
  • Hounds or wolves.
  • Horns, weapons, and a terrible din.
  • Riders who may abduct souls, punish the wicked, or simply rampage.
Wotan/Wodan/Odin is the most iconic leader in Germanic/Norse contexts. As god of the dead, war, wisdom, poetry, magic, and ecstatic states, he fits perfectly. In Scandinavia, it's often Odensjakt ("Odin's Hunt") or Oskoreia ("Asgard Ride"). Odin rides his eight-legged horse Sleipnir on shamanic journeys, paralleling the Hunt's otherworldly travel.

Variations exist: Female figures like Holda/Holle, Berchta/Perchta (sometimes seen as Wotan's consort or counterpart, linked to spinning, fertility, and winter), or others can lead regional versions. In Austria and southern Germany, Perchta is prominent. Christian influences later demonized the Hunt or replaced pagan leaders with the Devil, Herod, or historical figures.

Symbolism and Deeper Meanings​

The Wild Hunt is rich with layered symbolism, blending fear, awe, and cosmic significance:

  • Death and the Underworld — A primary theme. It foretells death or catastrophe (war, plague, famine). Witnesses might die soon after or have their souls abducted to join the procession or the realm of the dead. It connects to ancestor worship and the dead as intermediaries between humans and gods. Odin as psychopomp (guide of souls) reinforces this.
  • Chaos, Destruction, and Primal Forces — Represents the wild, untamed forces of nature breaking into the civilized world—storms, winds, winter's fury. It symbolizes disorder, battle frenzy (linked to berserkers), and the dissolution of boundaries. In some views, it's a manifestation of repressed fears or the Jungian "Shadow."
  • Fertility, Renewal, and Cyclical Time — Paradoxically tied to midwinter/Yule (Odin has names like Jólnir, "Master of Yule"). The Hunt can symbolize death and rebirth—the cycle of seasons, the return of light after darkness, and fertility rites. Primal, uninhibited energy (including erotic or lustful aspects in some interpretations) reflects nature's raw vitality. Leaders like Perchta have fertility associations.
  • Ecstasy, Shamanism, and Transformation — Odin governs ecstatic trance, inspiration, and altered states. The Hunt evokes shamanic soul-flight (bodies left behind while spirits ride). Participants undergo metamorphosis; it's a liminal, initiatory experience into wild nature or the supernatural. Some scholars link it to ritual processions or warrior cults.
  • Omen and Social Function — Seeing it is usually a bad omen. Folklore includes protective customs (hiding indoors, specific offerings, carrying bread/steel). It reinforced seasonal awareness and moral behavior while preserving pre-Christian elements in Christianized Europe.
Timing and Rauhnacht Connection: Strongly associated with Yule and the Rauhnächte—dark, stormy nights when the dead walk and supernatural activity peaks. This is exactly the atmosphere the Ferlach rifle channels with its "Rauhnacht" theme and wild mythological engravings.

Artistic and Cultural Depictions​

The motif has inspired dramatic art. One of the most famous is Peter Nicolai Arbo's 1872 painting The Wild Hunt of Odin (also called Åsgårdsreien), showing a massive, stormy horde led by an Odin-like figure amid swirling clouds, riders, and figures—perfectly capturing the chaotic, otherworldly energy.

Other illustrations often show Odin or a crowned leader at the head of spectral riders, sometimes with nude or semi-nude primal figures emphasizing the raw, untamed quality.

Connection to Your Rifle and Satyr/Goat-Man Motif​

The erotic, primal "goat-man" (satyr-like) figures in the engravings align beautifully with the Wild Hunt's symbolism. Satyrs/fauns in classical art represent unrestrained lust, nature, and Dionysian ecstasy—paralleling the Hunt's wild, chaotic, and sometimes fertility-linked primal spirits. In Germanic contexts, these echo "wild men" or untamed beings in the procession. The rifle transforms this folklore into high-art firearm engraving: a modern expression of Wotan's domain—death, wild nature, ecstasy, and the blurring of boundaries—rendered in explicit, mythological scenes during the Rauhnacht season.

Modern Interpretations​

Today, the Wild Hunt appears in neo-paganism (as a symbol of nature's power or initiatory rites), fantasy (e.g., games, books), and psychology (archetypal chaos or the unconscious). It resonates as a metaphor for uncontrollable forces—whether societal upheaval, personal transformation, or environmental wildness.

In short, Wotan's Wild Hunt is a multifaceted symbol of death and rebirth, chaos and order, the wild primal self, and the thin veil between worlds—especially potent in midwinter. The "Rauhnacht" rifle beautifully embodies this living folklore tradition through its artistic engravings.
 
I feel like this thread was posted before with either the same responses, or very similar responses, or maybe I am just having deja vu. Does anyone remember that?

I do think it's kind of funny that if this was just some random guy that wanted a goat-man banging a big boobed woman everyone is offended at the lack of class and animal involvement. But, if it's from a traditional Greek or German mythology, then it's a bit more palatable for some.

I kinda remember this popping up on here before as well….. not too longer ago either.

Whatever the meaning is, it’s not my cup of tea.
 
Hmmm...

This is not a "goat" this is the devil...

Notice the star of Remphan / Moloch under the woman...

It's a free country, but totting such a gun around makes a very peculiar statement...

You could not even gift this rifle to me, unless a sanding pad came with it to erase this incantation...
Frankly, I would never take the rifle, ever, even if sanded off. The thing would be better off to be burned and then melted down into scrap. That’s pure evil.
 
Did anyone notice that the Lady also sports a pair of horns ?

Yes, they look a bit like chamois horns, or at least goat. I remember you saying in some previous thread that you mostly have euro mounts, but would that one qualify for a half mount? :LOL:
 
Definitely NOT my thing, no matter what the reasoning is behind the imagery.
Give me a tasteful British rose and scroll engraving.

Now that you say that I probably put it on here earlier. I am shocked it is 30,000 Euro.

I have 4 daughters, I wouldn't own it for that reason.
 
Something tells me the person that owned this gun, might be selling it to acquire more swords, cloaks, and dragon figurines… for their bedroom aka the love dungeon.

Oddly enough, for some reason, I was distracted from this fact. :ROFLMAO:

some people prefer hotdogs and others prefer steak. take your pick

The lady pictured on the firearm appears to prefer hotdogs.

Now that you say that I probably put it on here earlier. I am shocked it is 30,000 Euro.

I just remembered seeing this same gun somewhere before, around the time I went spring bear hunting, maybe. And I swear the responses were almost identical. So when I clicked on this thread I thought it was old, but saw it was posted Thursday. I started feeling like I'm either a psychic or losing my marbles a bit.

I think his is a different group of weirdos.

Last year in Saxony I was on a group hunt for roe deer. It was booked through a famous German agent, and was kind of a shit show.

In that we got there a couple of days after the opener on the 15th of April, and the entire larder was already full of deer.

Anyway there was a young German Army officer that hunted with a pre-war Mauser sporter in 7x57, used ancient 1970's Zeiss binsoculars and wore wool head to toe in the spring. I believe he even had a wool cape.

This is the group of weirdos that something like this works into.
 
I'm afraid the AI just put all the mythology in a pile.
In my opinion, the pictures from Christian demonology depict an incubus and a succubus. These are two forms of the same demon, which takes on male and female appearances, and can, in particular, use the sperm obtained by the succubus to fertilize a woman, already in the form of an incubus. Demons themselves are infertile. These pictures have nothing to do with Odin's wild hunt, they're just ghost hunters on horseback and hounds, without porn.

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.
