...part of the reason so many African Professionals shoot
Per my sources it is true--was told that by one of the PH's in camp in Zim in June of this year. Once stateside I called my contact with Krieghoff out of Florida --and she did confirm they DID have a program for PH's and the price was slightly less than $7000. US --for a new Kreighoff...so to answer your second question---YES, I do believe that would have a substantial influence in the choice when purchasing a double gun..Ripp
Well, this morning I received an email from the person at Krieghoff/Ulm/Germany, in charge of the African market: Mr. Michael Steinmetz. He confirmed that there is NO PROGRAM FOR PHs! If a PHīs business is registered for VAT, then he can claim VAT back, thatīs all according to him, no PH gets a double barrel at a reduced price. If a dealer gives a discount, thatīs a different story which has nothing to do with Krieghoff/Germany.

My intent is not to argue with you--merely stating what I was told by both the PH in Zim as well as Pam Young of Krieghoff out of Florida. Whoever told you they don't offer any such program is wrong or perhaps they offer it here in the US but I DO know they offer programs--as they have been willing for me to use one if I promote it during filming hunts in Africa...perhaps they don't offer special PH programs now --but KNOW THEY HAVE IN THE PAST..
Thank you,
