New gun on the horizon!

greenspun.com : LUSENET : MILDOT : One Thread

Just left my application to the police for a new little toy. Way back I talked about a combo gun, and now itīs getting real. Itīs a Merkel Superleicht II in 20ga/7x57R and man is it SWEET!

I will top it off with an Aimpoint 7000S and a good quality scope (propably a Swarowski or Zeiss) in the 6x42 range. Gun has a neat QD scope system that twists the scope in place, and holds zero very very well. Action is of the "safe action" type found on modern Blazers. Also comes complete with engravings and a piece of rather nice walnut. The actions allows two barrels without risk for firing both from recoil, and trigger pull is so crisp one has to try to believe it. Pull weight on the rifle barrel is ajustable from extremely low of 400 grams (that would be something like 12 ounces)!

Now all I have to do is to get the REST of the money (this is kinda expensive, you know) and wait for the license to come through. Roughly 3000 dollars and a few monts will do the trick.

In two weeks I should know if I made it to smith school. Keep your fingers crossed....
