What a small world, I was the one who purchased your Halger no 120, and correct I am the grandson of the Hermann Gerlich who designed the Halger guns.
I have app 10 Halger guns all O&U shot guns so I was very happy to add. the Rifle .280 all Rifels my father had was confiscated dooing WW2. One is the gun I am also interested in the storry. How did you get hold of it in the first place? I notis the Scope and Tricker has been modifird do you know if the original had the german dobble tricker?
I am still looking out for Halger guns and especialy for the cal 224 and the 335 if you know anyone I am very interested...........




WOW!!
All I can say is that I am pleased that you now have the rifle, and, of course, welcome to NitroExpress!!
If you are interested, and if you can accept them, I found the reloading dies which were made to the chambers of Halger No.120 and will be happy to post them to you if you like.
I came into the rifle through my brother, John, who inherited it from my Great Uncle, Floyd Hill. I suspect he bought it sometime in the 70's or 80's, perhaps through Champlins or another of the primary dealers of those days.
My Great Uncle also owned Halger #105 and I think his attraction to the .280 Halger stemmed from his love of his .280 Dubiel which he used extensively for deer and Pronghorn Antelope back in the '30s. That, and the fact that he was crazy for magnum length Mausers.
I don't know about the scope but I agree that it looked as though it was added later in the rifle's life and I also cannot say anything about the trigger setup.

Do you plan on using the rifle?
