More info from Chris Sells of HEYM USA:


"Thanks to all for the compliments on the rifle. We have worked very hard on it, and we are very proud of the end result. Here are a few answers to some of the posted questions:

Engraving. There is no laser engraving on any HEYM 88 or 89 double rifle. Serial numbers are CNC engraved on the action and water table, but ALL external markings/engravings on the 89B are done by hand. This was a requirement for this model.

Unlike the 88B, there will be no "PH" / unengraved version available for the 89B. The 89B will have to leave the factory with either the #1 engraving pattern (least coverage) or with case colors at a minimum.

Price-wise, the 89 is a little more expensive than the 88. You will find the base model 89 to fit between the "PH" grade and the "Safari" grade (assuming you're familiar with the 88 lineup.) That means there is a target for the base model 89 under 20K, but as more engraving, nicer wood, etc... are added, the price will naturally increase.

We will release more details on the rifle over the next few weeks."
