    Default Double Barrel Bolt rifle by Fuchs and Szecsei of Germany



    Talk about one hole or two.......How about two .416 Riggs?
    Found this, this morning.....though I would pass it along.

    awesome, that's my kind of firearm
    so the definition of a criminal is someone who breaks the law and you want me to believe that somehow more laws make less criminals?

    Invented after Joseph was simultaneously charged by three elephants. Holy cow, that's a "Run, Joey, run" moment. Beautiful firearm. Now all someone needs to invent is a stock with a Monroe shock absorber.

    That's a pretty nifty rifle.

    I also liked this over-under, even if one barrel is just .22:

    Used to ne a guy shot a twist breach muzzle loader....use to shoot the first barrel, cock the hammer, rotate the barrels, and fire the second barrel.
    Called him "Two Shoots"

    Anyway, being charger by 3 bull elephants....hummmmm...He die?

    Rather than spend ten years income on such a monstrosity why not concentrate on only pissing off one elephant at a time?

    Come to think of it, I can't remember the last time I had 3 elephants in one spot, mad or happy.

    Zoo. But those folks frown on shooting 'em. In fact, they make quite the ruckus just trying to get a long gun inside. I've explained that we don't have a season on exotic animals so it's pretty much any time of the year. You should see the looks I get.

    Don't get me started on the zoo!!!

    Only place where you can buy a family life membership and still get banned for life!

    And they still send me mail outs begging for money to save the Samaritan blue bunny rabbit.

    Very unique and apperanty workable solution to the need for two quick shots. I don't know about recovery from the recoil to place an accurate second shot, though. Also four more available quickly just by working the bolt. Nice thinking outside the box!

    It was all just a big misunderstanding about when zebra season opened. I forgot I was in Ohio and their opening day is different than ours in KY.

    The local zoo was not amused when I showed up the day after a news story that one of the giraffes had died and asked if I could harvest the leg bones for knife handles. No sir...... they were not amused at all.

    Hey, that's a valuable lesson for a kid. Like dissecting frogs in biology class only more so. And it's free to boot.

    Someone at the zoo took them I'll bet. I wonder how much sinew is in a giraffe?
