Description:
Up for sale is a New Merkel 147EL. This fine game gun is chambered in 20 ga with 28-inch barrels. The chokes are fixed IC/Mod. The trigger is single selectable. The LOP is 14 7/16 from the curve in the trigger to the center of the but plate. The drop at comb is 1 1/2 and the drop at heel is 2 5/8 There is slight right-hand cast in the stock. The gun weighs in at 6 pounds 6 ounces. The receiver is heavily engraved with game scenes and fine scroll. The wood is the best I have ever seen on a 147EL this is a few grades above what normally comes on this model. The new owner is basically receiving a wood upgrade at no charge. Merkel is known for producing some of the finest sporting arms in the world. Pictures do this no justice. The listed price is MSRP, all you have do is call for the best delivered price. I love to sell fine guns; I am not a curator of a museum. I stock a vast array of Ceasar Guerini, Fabarm, Syren, Blaser,Merkel, NightHawk Custom, Cabot Gun and many more. It is impossible for me to list everything I will special order you anything your heart desire. Below are some technical specs from Merkel’ssite Thanks for looking.
 
 
Meisterstück side-by-side shotguns are light and wonderfully elegant hunting guns; fine representatives of the good old days. The side-by-side arrangement of the barrels is a classical design principle of hunting guns - this principle has been applied in Suhl since the early days. Even if the Merkel brothers were more committed to the over-and-under gun at the start, the Merkel philosophy was soon devolved to the traditional side-by-side gun. An example of this is the aesthetic line of the slim soldered barrels - a trademark of Merkel Meisterstücks.
 
Whether with Anson & Deeley locks or sidelocks, the Suhl shotguns soon developed their own style and cleverly improvised on the existing systems and solutions.
 
Besides the classical barrel hook, Suhl soon adopted the cross bolt developed by William Greener - which represented gunmaking at its finest.
 
Merkel maintains the elegance and optical lightness of these shotguns by consistent adherence to traditions. The individually adapted receivers also play a role. Three different receivers are manufactured for the three calibres on offer - calibre-adapted. This keeps the receivers slim and the guns light and responsive. With the shotguns too, steel is interlocked against steel and the Merkel top-down principle is applied. Thus the receiver of a side-by-side shotgun is constructed in such a way that it can withstand the same gas pressure as a Safari rifle.
 
Simply beautiful, simply good: Anson & Deeley locks.
 
Greener style cross bolt with double bottom bite.
