I'm mainly bitter that I can't afford one myself. I've always wanted a Farquaharson or Ruger No1.

Surely the simplicity of the action allows more to go into the quality of the materials and tuning of the finished gun. Yet everyone buys bolt action so these become a lower production run item? Simple economics of scale?

Low volume.

Volume production

i think we should reinvent a copy that tube feed a rolling block, even if the beast has to be held upright on the first prototype , i have an idea to reinvent our revolvers= no need for star ejector = already gave the idea to a youtuber last year for free, he was slicing old cylinders in half looking for damage/wear marks, i said we just have to invent a "disposable "- previous loaded cylinder for our existing big bore revolvers and also nicer wrist friendly loads, it would be ejected and dropped on the ground with a fresh loaded disposable cylinder to be slammed into reload position

I worked in construction most of my life and now have worn out joints, much the same as a pro athlete. Just stay positive and try to adapt and keep active.@@commonconservative7551

Comes to all of us unfortunately

You're right - the Hagn action is remarkable. I still own a couple and marvel at the design and fit/finish - truly masterpieces. This design is not that far off though.

He built a .416 Taylor for me, which I absolutely love!@@llkj7944

This is fantastic information - I will investigate. Thank you so much!

Thank you - I wish there was a record of all the barrel and action makers; the quality of materials and workmanship - and artistry - from the German makers is superb and timeless.

Gbaughman. I agree with you sir. I have a Prussian era (1890ish) blackpowder drilling in 10x10x45-70. I am fairly certain the 45-70 barrel blank came from Great Britain. This is my guess as it has 7 groove Alexander Henry rifling. This drilling was imported thru Charles Daly. Thank you

Most of Europe operates this way

Great post. I sold a stunning single shot to Ross; a beautiful rifle with an oak stock; I've only seen maybe 5 or 6 oak stocks and they were fantastic and unique and did not split or crack as many told me they would. Anyway, great fellow: Ross.

Yes yes and yes . Man i would love to have it.

Thank you - I thought so as well!

Thank you - I'm still going : ) Hope all is well with you and yours!

Thanks for the note

I Ike that 👍

I wouldn't hesitate for a second to buy a Miroku.

@@williambarry8015 Me either. I've had great shotguns built by Mirouko. No disrespect intended. It's just the pride and bragging rights of owning a Winchester. If you have a Mirouko and need an heir, put me on your list.😊

Hope you get the Ruger - you'll never look back

The Miroku is just as good - but the Ruger has that friendly stock and Englishness

Thank you - you must be quite skilled! I'll look for 32-40 and if not; I'll find a way as you suggest. I have all the Hagn drawings and plenty of casting which I give away from time to time.

I had a Ruger # 1 in 375 H&H from an earlier production run that did not shoot very well due to a poor barrel. Guess at some time Ruger used barrels from different producers. Instead of replacing the barrel I opted for lapping it first and got it to group within 1/2 MOA. My conclusion, a good barrel in any action, like a Hart, Bartlein, Walther, Shilen or Douglas will always produce top accuracy.

Thank you - glad you are here

Thank you for your ideas! I'll keep going; someone must know. All the best to you.

Gracias. Me gusta la acción de Heeren. Es bastante interesante. Buscaré a Houtchar. ¡Todo lo mejor para usted!

I think you got the better deal with the number one. I was very interested in the dakota until I seen one in person and handled it. I also heard some things about it that dampened my enthusiasm for it, although I can't remember exactly what they were now. I prefer the ruger number one over the dakota and actually, I prefer the Winchester 1885 over the ruger. My favorite is a limited edition Browning B78 (a variation of the current Winchester 1885). I am very intrigued by the Hagn single shot, but for the price difference, I am extremely happy with my B78 and its fancy feathercrotch walnut stock.

@@fedup3582 That's an interesting take. I do like my No. 1. However, I ordered a Model 10 because I wanted some custom features, which would've been difficult to acquire otherwise. There are some downsides to the Model 10 design though, like having an angled firing pin.

@@supplementalhorsey4510 that firing pin was one the detractors for me. Though I don't care to own one, I can appreciate one. Would you care to describe your model 10 in detail, with the custom features?

@@fedup3582 I ordered one chambered in 300 BLK with 16" threaded barrel. I think it was to have express sights + rings. For cosmetics, I got a metal butt plate, case hardening, a wood upgrade, and a few other nice touches. I was my idea for the perfect "back yard range" gun that I could handload for and maybe take hunting. Since that didn't work out, 2 years ago I ordered a Cooper in the same chambering, but then they got bought out and my order is officially delayed again, and may never happen. Will probably die of old age before I get a custom rifle made. 😭

Thank you - I didn't know

This is true

Both excellent but the falling block has the strength advantage.

A dealer had it listed. Lucky

Great idea - I'll come up with something.

No - just my ancestors

Hello - Yes - this one has German proof marks

Hello - Schmeisser made a lot of guns; but I'm not aware of a revolver. Does it look similar to this? www.shootingillustrated.com/content/the-model-1895-nagant-revolver/

@@UnitedStatesOfGuns i sent my friend a screen shot of the pistol in the link he says he thinks it similiar but isnt sure im still waiting on a picture of the pistol when and if i ever get the picture ill send it to you in an email

Hello - Why not a Husqvarna bolt action in 6.5x55 ; .270 or 30-06. .243 Winchester should always be considered if it meets your laws. Although not talked about much these days, I've seen more spectacular results from the .243 than just about any other cartridge - probably because people shoot it so well. If you don't want a Mauser then a Remington 700, Winchester Model 70 or Savage 110 : all are fantastic. Any Sauer, Tikka, Voere or Sabatti can't be wrong. Best of luck in your hunt for a rifle.

Yes - Dakota Miller falling block; the 10 is great - as you know

Bene

That's great : )

Good idea - will do

Someone should make these again - people would buy.

@@UnitedStatesOfGuns yep, i have experimented with single shots and dummy rounds, repeated follow-up shots can be inaccurate but very fast at first

Thanks for the note - I don't know that rifle or action - would be great to learn more; please send any info you have to usogbyemail@gmail.com Much appreciated!

Sadly...no - I'm still looking.

@@UnitedStatesOfGuns The hunt is part of the fun. Happy hunting! 😀
