Description:
Up for sale is my Krieghoff Classic Big Five Double Rifle set chambered in 500 Nitro Express. It also comes with an additional set of barrels chambered in 375 H&H magnum. This set is in really nice condition and has seen limited use and has only slight minor handling marks. I have updated the recoil pad to suit my build and currently the LOP is 15 inches. This is an extractor model. Krieghoff builds their rifles like tanks. I would certainly have no issues trusting this rifle with perfoming correctly when your life is on the line hunting dangerous game in Africa. It comes in a protective metal case. Due to the heavy weight of both sets of barrels, shipping is a little more than usual at $250 fully insured to the lower 48 states. This is a serious rifle ready to tackle the meanest of game in Africa!

$19,999.00 - I accept certified bank checks and bank wires (CERTIFIED BANK CHECKS WILL BE HELD FOR 5 DAYS BEFORE SHIPPING TO ENSURE FUNDS CLEAR)

Krieghoff's write up from their on the Classic Big Five Rifle:

Nothing epitomizes the skills and experience needed for a successful hunt like taking game with a classic double rifle. Prized by dangerous game hunters for years the classic double rifle provides the security and reliability when each shot really counts. The Krieghoff Classic "Big Five" Double Rifle combines the heritage of the traditional side-by-side and the sophistication of the most modern design and manufacturing technology. The CLASSIC is available in the most common and suitable calibers. Krieghoff’s master gunmakers combined both traditional wisdom and innovative ideas to build a rifle that provides the ultimate in safety and reliability and a wide range of features that ensure smooth, quick, and accurate shooting. In addition to the superb handling of the rifle, a most important feature is the manual cocking device, which is located on the top tang, in the position usually occupied by a conventional safety. It allows carrying the CLASSIC fully loaded with the hammers uncocked – the safest position since there is no chance of an accidental discharge. Craig Boddington, an accomplished hunter and knowledgeable writer remarks: “After using it in the field, I am increasingly impressed with your cocking device versus a traditional safety. Great rifle, and of course it performed wonderfully.”
