This rifle is not defined by a single feature, but by the perfect harmony of its components. Every solution is designed to work together, offering reliability, precision and confidence in real hunting conditions.

Because true quality is not about excess, it is about making every detail count, when it truly matters.

Evolved tradition, crafted for the field

Born from a perfect balance between tradition and innovation, this single-shot rifle tells a story of precision and passion. It is not merely a firearm, but an experience designed for those who truly understand hunting and appreciate every detail.

Every component is carefully selected, refined and integrated to deliver not only outstanding performance, but also that distinctive sense of excellence and craftsmanship that is immediately felt at first contact.

The right weight, where it matters most

The optimal weight of the kipplauf is more than a technical specification. It is a decisive advantage in the field, light enough for effortless carrying yet stable enough for clean, precise shots when it matters most.

Perfectly balanced, it feels like a natural extension of the body, quick to handle and inspiring confidence. The result is complete control, allowing the hunter to focus entirely on the hunt.

A locking system built on confidence

At the heart of the rifle is an English-inspired locking system, enhanced by an innovative perpendicular conical locking wedge. This solution ensures superior solidity, consistent lock-up and long-term reliability, delivering a secure and confidence-inspiring closure.

The barrel sleeve is housed within the action through a cradle-shaped radius precisely matched to the hinge pin. This guarantees smooth, natural opening and closing, evenly distributes stresses and maintains long-term stability without play or variation.

A side-mounted serpentine opening lever completes the system, providing fast and intuitive operation even with an optic mounted, without visual interference.

The result is a coherent mechanical system in which every component works together to deliver security, fluid operation and confidence when it truly matters.

Manual cocking system

The direct push cocking system allows the hunter to decide exactly when the rifle is ready to fire. A silent, natural movement takes the rifle from maximum safety to full readiness only when required, following the instinctive motion of the hand without force or metallic noise and reducing stress in real hunting situations. When the rifle is opened, it automatically de-cocks, returning to a safe condition and eliminating unintended risks.

This system is paired with a premium steel barrel, combined with a fore-end engineered to apply no stress to the barrel. The barrel is allowed to vibrate naturally at the shot, ensuring consistent and reliable accuracy in all conditions.

Optics maximum configuration freedom

In hunting, the optic is not an accessory it is the hunter's true point of contact with the target. The rifle features a universal interchangeable mounting system, allowing any preferred optic to be installed whenever needed.

Custom stock grade 5 walnut burl

The custom Grade 5 walnut burl stock provides balance, solidity and natural warmth. More than an aesthetic choice, it ensures stability when shouldered and makes the rifle feel personal, alive and truly distinctive.

Each grain tells a unique story just like your own hunting experience.
