Mannlichers....

... a good example of the point I was trying to make in my previous post... lovely lines.

I'd be tickled with a Mannlicher style version of the Ruger 77/44 meself.

That would be something!

My eye sees a 20" bbl for the right look on those rifles. That's the thing I always disliked about the Rugers was the short bbls. Makes them look chubby on the forend. Any more than 20 or 21" makes them look like a rifle with a full stock not a carbine and thus too long.

the number 1 are 20 inches long.

Some of these guns are beautiful. Can someone school me on Mannlichers? With your average Tupperware bolt action, floating the barrel increased accuracy. For rifles in this style, are they fully bedded, or floated all along but pressure at the barrel band? Are they any more or less accurate?

Thanks!

Geez. I would like to know the answer to this as well . What is the advantage of having so much stock on a rifle ?
Thank You

Sometimes you get lucky with Zastava wood.

Not bad at all!! I've got a pair, one in .366 Wagner and after seeing the accuracy with that 'inexpensive' Zastava, I picked up another, in 7x57. However, the wood in either of mine is nowhere close to that. Good find.

Pics from years ago, of a take down version. Just pull the pin on the forestock, and the rifles comes apart. Pretty simple setup really.

I think the Steyr M-S 1903s look best without their claw mounted scopes.

Anyone ever see one of these kicking around?

I handled an ‘S’ (might have been an S/T) with the butt stock magazine at LeBarons years ago at their store on Yonge Str. before they moved it to Markham

OK, never ran across one in Canada myself, interesting to know there is at least one around.

It is unfortunate, but I think this Blade Runner sci-fi movie prop gun (based on the receiver from a Steyr-Mannlicher Model L)
may be the most famous "Mannlicher" of all. These non-firing replicas can be expensive (over $1000.) and I see the Steyr trademark on most of them. I wonder if Steyr gets a cut.

Another nice one that isn't mine. The Rominten Stutzen by German master gunsmith Theo Jung from Lohmar.

Rob, top shelf work. That website has a lot of interesting information on it as well.

I believe it was based on the "SL" (222, 223, 222 Rem Mag etc).
