New Double Rifle Build

[OneGearhead]

Received notification from VC my double is still being built and will be finished

GOOD NEWS!! Hopefully your timeframe won’t be pushed back much, if at all.

No matter how it goes, either FN or Beretta, that won’t be a bad thing! I think I’d rather see it go to Beretta though. Haha

I believe VC will always cont. doubles... big bucks.

as mentioned, lead time will be unfathomable ?

I haven't been on in a couple months and just came back to check on progress. Any new updates?

Most recent news I have received suggests its between FN Browning and Beretta now.

Just saw this on another forum (French language). Neither Browning or Beretta: https://www.francebleu.fr/infos/eco...tephanois-verney-carron-5344216?sfnsn=scwspmo

Ran it through a translator program:

The commercial court of Saint-Étienne ruled on Wednesday 4 June between the two bids in the running for the takeover of Verney-Carron. He chose the one of the Loire company Rivolier. Verney-Carron has found a buyer. Rivolier was appointed by the Saint-Étienne commercial court on Wednesday, June 4. The Saint-Just-Saint-Rambert-based group had pleaded its case in court last week, as had the Belgian company FN Browning, which had been in the running for several months to take over the Saint-Etienne-based arms manufacturer. FN Browning was even the favourite of Cybergun, owner of Verney-Carron.

Putting the local employment area to work Rivolier was the local of the stage, and that's perhaps what worked in his favour. The family business employs 112 people in the Loire, and generates a turnover of 130 million euros. Verney-Carron was not the first company that Rivolier had bought. Recently, the Loire company got its hands on MD Tech, which makes products for forensic science in Andrézieux-Bouthéon, as well as Hexadrone, based in Saint-Férréol-d'Auroure, in Haute-Loire. We want to make this employment area work!", declared the boss of Rivolier, Arnaud Van Robais, after the hearing at the commercial court.

His plan for Verney-Carron is to relaunch the activity on Thursday, June 5, with 55 employees, out of the 67 that the Saint-Etienne company has. And it is a former employee of FN Browning who will manage the site, still in the same premises, boulevard Thiers. At least for the moment, because Rivolier is not buying the walls and has the ambition to build a new factory in the future.

Oh well there you go, so the production of my rifle should continue now.

I had a gunmaker go broke while building a double rifle for me in the UK . Needed some very fast action to ensure my gun got taken off site and finished elsewhere rather than being sold off with other stock and assets to pay creditors . Not sure it was legal but I’m not saying who , what , when or where .

 

[Daniel Cary]

Corporate merger's, etc .. nothing new.

It will be a beautiful build.

 

[Aussie_Hunter]

Verney is back up and running now, my double is currently out for engraving

Offf you must have really needed to move fast. As the chief constable would have stepped in quite sharpish to take all firearms off sight. Going bust means a gunmaker is out of business once they stop trading then they lose their license so cops step straight in.
Must have been in a good county. Our chief constable is a thunt spelt with no th but a capital C
Is it finished? A pic would be nice cheers.

 

[Daniel Cary]

I knew they'd accommodate .. you know corporate bureaucracy,

 

[AZDAVE]

Good to hear that VC is back up and running.

 

[Daniel Cary]

Nice round body, available 3-4yrs ago.
@Aussie_Hunter , etc.

 

[Daniel Cary]
