I doubt you'll hear any valid complaints on this maker.

I have no personal experience with them, but I've only heard positive things about Hambrusch doubles. Is it a new or used one you are looking at?

Hi Mike,

I'm not looking for a review of a specific rifle. I just was looking for any info and opinions from individuals that have owned, shot, handled a Hambrusch double. I think you know i asked this same question at another location and nothing negative popped up. I'm just trying a different gene pool.

Cheers
Jim

They made nothing but the best. More broadly speaking, I would be shocked if anyone would be unhappy with any double made in Ferlach; they have made, for a very long time, nothing but the best. I have a few such doubles, and consider them among my best double guns, best double rifles.

Not so much "looking at it" but got a little interested in a 500NE that was recently on the market.

Hambrusch 500 NE

Start making room in your gun safe and buy it! Like I said elsewhere, " If it came from Ferlach it's gotta be good!" Ferlach is the home of the makers guild of Austria. Nothing but the best gets a name. There are some that have been made or proofed there w/o trade names that are still very good quality.
I have a couple of older ones and newer one that are 'Best Quality'. I'll be back Dec 2 if you want to see first hand the quality of there Ferlach rifles.
