New H&H doubles
18/02/06 10:44 AM

Check out www.drake.net. Lewis Drake has a H&H .375 double for $175g and one in .300 for a bargain 160g. I saw these at the Vegas show, very elaborate French style cases. But last time I was at H&H in NYC, late last year, a sidelock ejector rifle was 125g.

I think H&H has fallen a long way, once upon a time they made working double rifles, albeit very expensive, but the buyers were expected to go use them, and arguably an H&H double (or any double rifle from one of the four or five top Brits) was the tiptop expression of what a hunting rifle was supposed to be. Now they are objets d'arte for rich people to display, luxury goods, divorced from practicality, same as keeping a Lamborghini in the driveway of your McMansion. Pity.
