The Merkel 160A-EY Lux Africa Double Rifle in .470 Nitro Express is a true masterpiece of German craftsmanship, designed for the most demanding big game hunters and collectors. This exceptional safari-grade rifle is new in the box and features breathtaking game scene engraving by master engraver K. Kroth, making it not just a formidable hunting tool but also a work of art.
Built for the pursuit of Africa’s most dangerous game, this rifle is chambered in the legendary .470 Nitro Express, a caliber renowned for its stopping power in the most extreme hunting conditions. The 23.5” barrels are precisely regulated for pinpoint accuracy, as confirmed by the factory test target, ensuring perfect performance in the field. The rifle’s solid matted rib features a standing rear sight with two flip-up leaves for quick target acquisition, while the ramped front sight is optimized for fast and instinctive aiming. The rib is also milled for mounting a red dot or optic, adding versatility for modern hunters.
At the heart of this Merkel is a beautifully engineered hand-detachable sidelock action, featuring double triggers (with a front articulated trigger), ejectors, a Greener cross bolt, and an automatic safety—providing the ultimate combination of reliability and precision. The weight is balanced at 11 lbs, giving it the stability needed to manage the power of the .470 NE while remaining fast-handling and instinctive to shoulder. The length of pull is a comfortable 14.25”, ensuring a natural fit for controlled, accurate shots.
The engraving by K. Kroth elevates this rifle to a true collector’s piece. The left sidelock showcases a stunning game scene of three powerful bull elephants, while the right sidelock features two massive rhinos, captured in exquisite detail. Surrounding the scenes is elegant scrollwork, masterfully executed to complement the rifle’s overall aesthetic. This level of craftsmanship is rarely seen and makes the rifle as much a piece of fine art as it is a world-class hunting firearm.
With Merkel’s current lead times exceeding two years for a new double rifle, this is an extraordinary opportunity to acquire one of their finest creations without the long wait. The rifle comes complete in its original box with the owner’s manual and factory test target, verifying its impeccable regulation.
This Merkel 160A-EY Lux Africa is an elite safari-grade double rifle, nearly impossible to find in this hand-detachable sidelock Lux Edition. It is a perfect blend of power, precision, and artistry, ideal for the discerning hunter or collector. Don’t miss the chance to own this magnificent piece—call now! 315-689-0000
