Cool. I thought the 6.5x52 was the Carcano cartridge. Evidently not.
How do you select the rifle barrel?

2) Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
3) Keep your finger off the trigger till your sights are on the target.
4) Identify your target, and what is behind it.

Re: I have got my dream weapon !!!!
Unless I am mistaken, there was more than one maker that used the name Simson. The history of European gun manufacturing has several such interesting asides... the proofs/ other marks would definitely be of interest. It is a very interesting piece and I am sure Sudesh would like to trace it's history as well The IGC is a great place for finding such info, but I haven't visited in over 4 years and in fact I've even forgotten my log-ins there!m24 wrote:Simson.

Re: I have got my dream weapon !!!!
Further to the rather interesting Drilling sudesh has picked up, some of you may want to check out the Famars Rombo, it's a vierling i.e. a 4-barreled shotgun (only available in 28 & .410 gauge).
Some rather interesting configurations (Drilling, Vierling and funfling) seem to be also available at http://hoferwaffen.com/hofer_52.php?lang=en
Cheers!

Re: I have got my dream weapon !!!!
Funfling Looks like the boring machine lost track there...Taking care of one barrel in one gun is a pain. One would have to hire Facility services for something like a Funfling.mundaire wrote:Further to the rather interesting Drilling sudesh has picked up, some of you may want to check out the Famars Rombo, it's a vierling i.e. a 4-barreled shotgun (only available in 28 & .410 gauge).
