I have for sale or trade a 1975 Johann Franzoj double rifle in 9.3x 74R. It weighs exactly 9 lbs and LOP is 14 5/8 “ it shoots very well and will show a target. $8000 or will consider trades towards a larger bore double rifle. Can add ammo into the right deal.

The target at 40 yards shows 3 sets of two shots The 3rd set is circled in black
It shoots better with the barrel fouled from several shots. It handles, opens, locks up and shoots very well.

That is a wonderful piece of craftsmanship there…the jeweled box lock is a very nice touch.
 
Great price for a great rifle! GLWS!
 
I would really like to find a Krieghoff in 500/416
But looking for a quality double in a larger bore
 
I am open to ideas and negotiation. I hate to sell it but need the money for a larger bore. It shoots better than it looks. I have a lot of ammo also.
 
Beautiful rifle. and priced very fairly!
You will love the 500/416 Krieghoff, I truly enjoy mine. When you get yours drop me a PM and I will share load data to give you a starting point. I would be interested but already have a Chapuis 9.3x74 that is my favorite rifle.
 
At last count I have three 9.3x74R rifles, but I will gladly put in a vote for the quality and price of this one. It has all the bells and whistles that an English "best" boxlock would have to include the very difficult and very expensive stock reinforcing strap. What a lovely thing.
 
Thanks guys, Everything everybody says about the 9.3 is true they are a sweetheart to shoot. But I booked an elephant hunt and I would like to take a double. I already know I’m gonna regret selling this. The maker said it would cost $69,000 to have made right now.

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
