Title: Free gun give away
Post by: Mike Brooks on March 02, 2018, 02:17:40 AM

They're giving away a Steve Zihn gun on TOTW today. Super looking English styled sporting gun in .62 cal. for $1699. Good deal there for somebody, bet it's gone quick! Even has a stalking safety.

Dang you Mike, you made me go look and think about it.

I have been thinking I need a large bore rifle like this. 

I agree the price is good.

For that price you could afford to shorten the stock. :o

  At first I read that as a 15 1/8th pound trigger pull. Maybe a little excessive but probably very safe.

I have a similar trigger pull on my Isaac Hollis and Son English sporting rifle, .72. I was running out of breath squeezing shots off hand at 50 yards the other day, nice crisp let off , just ver heavy.  No nervous discharge when you have a large moggy looking at you from about 20 feet in the jungle !!
