Sorry if this is a repost, but I never even knew such rifles as this even existed, maybe someone else will enjoy discovering this for the first time too. Watching this gun eject two shells simultaneously is a thing of beauty.

Does anyone who knows about these rifles care to share some info? How much do they retail for in Canada?

Hello 1995.......:)

I doubt there is more than one or two in Canada, if any. If you need to ask the price on it, you can't afford it. And frankly, even if they cost the same as a Stevens 200, I wouldn't' buy one.
 
The gun in the first photo is a Blaser that was featured on their website for quite some time (and maybe still is). It was basically a pair of R93's mounted side by side, and operated just like the one in the video except for the fact that it is a straight pull action. IIRC it was conceived and commissioned by some ultra-wealthy Arab bigwig with more money than brains.

The other two are more traditional bolt actions, not straight pulls. How dreadfully primitive!:D

p.s. Don't worry, Gatehouse...I doubt that they are offered in .375 Ruger.:)
 
The first one of these I'd ever heard about were built by a fellow named Joesph Szecsei out of Ontario. The article is somewhere in my archives (big box of gun rags to keep) somewhere. This would have been about 1995 or 1996. Now if memory serves, he had built two of the at the time, and cost on them was fifty to sixty thousand. What I do remember was him stating that he was not planning on building more - too much of a pain in the ass I guess. I should take a swim through those boxes and see if I can find it.
 
I just checked the Blaser website. The gun from the first picture is still on there, listed as special order only. It is called the R93 Duo Model Hamed, and can be found listed along with the other, more ordinary (!) R93 models.

I anxiously await a CGN group purchase.:D

They still make them, very high quality stuff.
 
As said above I dug out a book I have and the 2nd and 3rd pictures are Szecsei-Fuchs doubles. Rifles way 12.ilbs with round barrel or 14.3lbs with octigon with 23 5/8 in barrels. It says that some of the small parts a titanium and they developed a speacial protective coating that also makes it smooth operating. It says that the coating alone costs more than Steyr rifle with a scope!
