Default Oh No!

Winston Churchill said that if the Hun wasn't at your feet, he was at your throat!

Good grief, do these guys never give up? First it was Stuka dive Bomber. Then it was the V2 rocket. Then those devils came out with the jet powered Messerschmidt 262. It is just one hideous secret weapon after another!



Now this:

In other news today, German U-boats infest the English Channel. Captain Rusty P. Bucket is on the way to intercept in the Zodiac Class HMCS River Pickle.

Watch out for those new German rifles Captain!

An interesting concept. There might be a proffessional hunter in Africa that could see it as useful.

But as far as being something of benifit to a regular hunter, I have my douts.

A double rifle is really for fast shots at close range. And normally from a very powerful cartridge. Two fast shots at close range at a dangerous approaching animal had better be enough. Taking the time and working the bolt so you can have another two fast shots may not be of much use if the first two did not do the job.

That gun must weigh a bunch.

Having trouble seeing how this would be better than a semi-auto

That thing has been on display at the SCI show in Reno for a few years now.

If you shot like me, Red, you would probably give up this sport for good! This year my marksmanship has been so bad, I am going to hunt with an 8lb. can of 4350 with a fuse...
