They seem very high for all but dtl and dt but each to his own as they say Ed! I think I will stick with the old fashioned flat rib and fixed stock mate. Yes I guess I'm past my sell by date, but that's life I guess! But they still look nice though!!!
Does this pop your Kolar?

Well engineered, very popular in US among skeet shooters, recently gained ground in Australia as well promoted by the distributor, Glen Walker, BUT; back up and support is rubbish. Company is run by a very individual individual who has a very peculiar take on customer service. Our Aussie friends are now starting to find interest in them diminished now, yes they are a little different, yes they are well made, but I would not go near one unless I could afford to have gun that cost me a five figure sum laid up waiting for some s**t service backup from the manufacturer.
I do know a few people who have them and love them, I also know of others that regret going that way due to the way they have been treated when trying to get issues / problems resolved.
You pay your money and make your choice but don't say you were not warned.

Think I'm going to stay with tried and tested...Kolar seem to be a bit too "new" over here, and perhaps the back up support is not quite as slick as one would hope yet with such an investment required.
Lovely looking things though, imho! Did you SEE the custom chronography/clockwork engraving? :hyper:
Mine would have to be covered in eyeballs, and that would be a bit weird...
So...P, B or K gun...time to try some out I think!

Lets talk Krieghoff on our next rambling random unnerving to outsiders phone call. Did you get the Tudor bird house, and did it come with little ruffes for the birds to wear?
