The KIT version of the famous Jäger Hunter rifle. It needs some simple “do it yourself” knowledge basis, few tools and some working hours to complete and finish a “self-custom-made” gun.
The KIT gun has been previously assembled. The barrel is not blued but it went through an anti-rust treatment, the lock is assembled and finished. The stock needs to be smoothed, checkered, coloured and oil finished, while the metal furniture needs a polishing
The image of the KIT version is just an illustration, not the exact picture of the gun.
The Jäger rifle is well known in Germany and in the neighbouring Countries especially for hunting, it was taken to the New Continent by immigrants looking for a new life in a new Country. The Jäger rifle was one the most balanced and compact rifles, very characteristic for its big caliber; equipped with double set trigger, it was very precise, able to shoot big balls having a very high energy. The Jäger rifle was first made in the flintlock version and only afterwards it was transformed to a percussion rifle. Our reproduction gives the shooter improved results due to the broached rifling as well as the lock parts produced on highly advanced computer controlled machines (CNC). The fine artistic beauty is captured in the patch box with sliding lid, in the American walnut wood and completed with steel furniture and fittings which create a strong image for this rifle.
It is a fine performing rifle, both for hunting and for target shooting at 50 and 100 meters.
