Custom heavy barrel Schuetzen target rifle built on a Martini falling block action. Features include a 30” blued heavy round barrel with ramp front sight and is also drilled and tapped for barrel mounted tube scope. Action is beautifully engraved in deep relief and retains all the applied blue finish. Barrel too retains virtually all of the blued finish. The rather rakish Schuetzen style butt stock is fully carved as is the large forend. The stock has an added cheek piece made of wood for a right handed shooter. It sports double set triggers, a large disc aperture rear tang sight, bottom hook only Swiss butt plate and fancy trigger guard. Barrel is stamped .219 Z (219 Zipper round) The stock has a sling swivel. Mint bore and mint action. An incredible example of the gunmakers art.
