DORLEAC ZG47 Take-Down Rifle
      24/08/20 07:25 PM

This light stalking rifle was produced according to our client specifications.
To build this takedown light rifle, chambered for the excellent .270 Winchester, we used a CZ ZG47 system.
Considered by many to be the ultimate evolution of the Mauser 98, this remarkable action was designed by engineer Otakar Galas for the Czechoslovak Zbrojovka and produced in 1947 under the name ZG [Zbrojovka Galas].
We opted for a "detachable stock" type takedown as used by H&H, the only easy disassembly solution guaranteeing headspace with absolute rigor.
To do this, the receiver has been modified accordingly while the stock supports the locking elements. After unscrewing the large captive screw at the front of the magazine, the barrel-receiver assembly is tilted to release it from the rear locking wedge and we obtain two elements of almost equal length, thus making it easier to transport the rifle.
To help with the disassembly, Jean-Baptiste Leveque has made a superb tool combining the excellence of execution with the practical ease of a folding screwdriver.
The barrel is a 24 "Lothar-Walther that carries slanted express rear sight and interchangeable front bead on ramp, the latter being a fine ivory caterpillar.
A fully concealed thread allows the use of a sound suppressor.
The stock made in good French walnut follows the classic lines distinctive of our productions.
There is little ornamentation on this rifle, more intended for the field than for the rack, but Florent Viale engraving is of extreme quality and compliments the few touches of bone and charcoal color case hardening.
All major metal parts have been slow rust blued and the walnut oil finished.
The scope is an old Swarovski Z3 - alas no longer produced - mounted on a set of modified Talley rings.

Regards to all.
