Pfeifer-Waffen Handy Hunter

A custom rifle starting at around £2000

Made by the same Austrian family firm , Pfeifer Waffen, who manufacture the Zeliska, in .600 Nitro Magnum, the world's most powerful revolver.  Pfeifer say that when constructing the  Handy Hunter, they  used completely new concepts and ideas in gunsmithing. The Pfeifer Handy Hunter combines all features  demanded of a modern hunting rifle.

The great advantage of this rifle lies in it’s overall length (27 1/2 ins). The rifle is extremely short and handy, while preserving a barrel length of 26 inches.

Furthermore the weapon is well-balanced, so you can even aim and shoot using just

one hand, handling it pistol-like. Perfect for unsupported shots whilst woodland stalking.  Having the weight so far back stops the proverbial “stirring the porridge” action so troublesome when using conventional rifles.

Imagine how comfortable it would be to carry such a short rifle,using the rucksack  straps, especially in rough terrain, hunting abroad or climbing up into a high seat. 

At the shooting range you will be surprised how easily the Handy Hunter can be reloaded without moving it from its position.

Pfeifer use high precision cold hammered barrels by Heym Co., in order to achieve superb shooting performance and accuracy.
