Merkel 2022 price list .. if this works.

 

[LimbNoMo]

I was told the current price list is about 8% under the true price and that another 30% is being added Jan. 1, 2026.

I'd love to see it snagged ...

That says 2022 prices, are they still honoring those today?

Idk, (the inquiry) reply

"Merkel price list, for your information, this is out of date price list but here are the guns that we are able to import plus some other fine sidelock guns not mentioned, Merkel has changed their policy and the prices are quoted by discussing this directly with my German partner, Tobi, who is copied on the previous answer to your Guns international inquiry"

"Thank you for your inquiry, we are being told they continue to make the guns prices are going up roughly 30% in 2026 we’ve heard, and when ordering a gun which could be done to all specifications and choices of wood, etc., it can take over a year, we will send you some information about our company in case we can tempt you into buying something! That’s the American way! Have a good day, George"

People use 500's out there regularly.

To me, dangerous game represents some of the most exciting hunting on the planet. It requires long travels, usually to a very remote part of our world, where the faces, customs and languages are all foreign to me. And, most of the time, it requires a firearm that is different than your typical deer rifle. When you measure the weight of your quarry in tons, when it possesses the ability to bite you in half, fatally gore you with its horns or tusks, or simply squash you into the red African dust like a withered grape, I feel comfortable knowing I have...

Bonjour, comme vous je suis nouveau sur ce site que je découvre avec beaucoup de plaisir. En effet, j'y ai échangé de manière très avertie avec des personnes compétentes et j'espère que cela va continuer.

Welcome aboard!

Since most of us do not speak French, I cut and pasted your above introduction into this little application called Google Translate. There are other inline translators available with only a few clicks of one's mouse...

Post script: I see that using the quote function of this sight automatically translates. Pretty darn neato!

Krieghoff will also produce a .500 NE. Takes about a year for a custom job, however, I have seen them ready to sell at DSC at the Krieghoff sales section.

 

[Daniel Cary]

When I called the PA factory, they told me there where a few 470's stateside, I then had to call a dealer for a 500.

One was available overseas; eta was a week .. it was a while longer. I asked the dealer for a photo; they stated "Krieghoff can rightfully decline". That would've been a bust, however, they did.

 

[Mtn_Infantry]

I might know of a Krighoff in 500 that’s coming to market. Another AH member is currently talking to them about the rifle. If you send me a PH I can put you in contact with the owner should that member pass.

I’ve personally held the gun, and seen the animals he’s shot with it over the years.

What model is it?
