Good evening, Friends. I recently acquired a Merkel .470 NE Double and I am looking for a Merkel-branded takedown case for it. I can't find anything on the usual firearm and auction sites. When I do a Google search, I find one listed at a shop in Texas, but it is sold. I have a generic takedown case that I could use, but this rifle is very nice and I would really like to find a "correct" case for it. Please let me know if you have one or if you can point me in the right direction.

Thx,

Jake
 
I have one from a .500. I will dig it out and take pics for you. PM me your email address and I will send it them to you.
 
I'm waiting to hear back from one member when he completes his work obligations, but I'm still in search of this case. Please message me if you have one that you are willing to sell.
 
I have many English and European gun cases that could be fit to a Merkel. You then apply a Merkel trade label to the interior.

here is one for sale

That's the one that I mentioned in the original post that comes up on Google searches, but is already sold. Thanks for trying though, Stompbox. I really appreciate the help!
 
Thank you to everyone that made an effort. I have reached an agreement with Lance Hopper on his case.

Sorry about that, I came across it while trying to find a couple of Merkel cases for two barrel sets that I have. if you come across any for two barrel sets, let me know.

No worries, Stompbox. I appreciate the help. I bought a nice leather-lined case from Lance. I'm also looking for a Verney-Carron case for my safari azur if you happen to stumble across one.
 
Reviving this thread because I am now also looking for a Merkel takedown case for a DR. If anyone has one for sale please let me know.
 
Also looking for one for my 470merkel!

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
