New Sidelever falling block action
      #328055 - 05/05/19 12:07 PM

In an effort to augment my Rising Block action with another offering to appeal to bench rest shooters as well as hunters with something more familiar, but still unique in the current marketplace. I set out to design an action that offers a great trigger, plenty of strength and a familiar design since my Rising Block is so different.

So I present my sidelever falling block. It features a coil spring driven striker housed in the breech block, and Martini style extractor with primary extraction for those sticky cases, and perhaps my favorite feature of all, a removable trigger group that has adjustments for sear engagement and pull weight. Tang safety that blocks both the trigger and sear, draw-bolt stock attachment and an option for a forend hanger to free float the barrel. The size pictured will handle rimmed cartridges from .22 hornet to 9.3X74R.

It's very smooth to operate and the trigger is crisp as can be. Zero creep due to the pivot location of the trigger itself and short travel.

Hope you enjoy. I'm very pleased and have high hopes for the action.

Bailey, you've just turned the clock back about 150 years or so with the same amount of love, care & finesse that is so lacking in today's firearms - the only difference being that you are using state of the art materials & techniques!
A well thought out action, like Daryl I certainly am impressed to say the least.
Beautiful lines & workmanship you can never hide & that its exceptional work!

Thanks for the kinds words.

My intention is to primarily sell these actions in the white for others to finish rifles on. I will of course build finished rifles on them as well.
