Simply outstanding, as we have been used with Dorléac & Dorléac rifles! The always more than perfect blending of steel, wood and exquisite taste. In my personal opinion, among contemporary rifle makers only Westley Richards can in some occasions compete with this level of craftsmanship!

Not to forget Hartmann und Weiss.
What makes the D&D rifles so attractive in my eyes is that they are a tad closer to the Oberndorf heritage (barrel contour, bolt handle treatment and most often the use of true Oberndorf commercial actions/would really like to know the source !).
Besides the immaculate execution it is the perfect amalgation of Commercial Mauser Oberndorf and the modern / British influenced style to a line you will always recognise as typical D&D that makes a masterpeace.
