    Forgot to suggest, if you're wanting a 92 action, import a Rossi Ranch Hand with a regular 92 stock - about the smallest you can go without getting into take downs. They're 23 inches as manufactured, so need the full stock to not be a pistol in NZ. Quality is alright, nothing terrible but definitely a rossi product.

    Check out these.... carbon stock, titanium action & steel barrel. Not a peasant gun I imagine they would cost a bit.

    FANZOJ KB-1 TI CARBON

    Currently I just do overnighters with good success, but one day when I've got more time on my hands I would like to go 'exploring' on longer missions and carry something light. A takedown bow could be fun but too but with my current bow ability i'd go hungry.

    This will be similar to the coating blaser use I imagine. I saw these looking for a titanium version of the k95 I heard about on a forum.

    Most of what Fanzoj makes is in the $50k+ range. They don't list prices on their website - "if you've gotta ask..." as the saying goes.

    So yeah.

    Baikal > Fanzoj.

    Classy, lightweight and cheap compared to the Prinz and Fanzoj
    Blaser K95 is still the best option as it ticks both boxes being classy and lightweight .
    Take down on seconds
    Scope returns to zero 100%
    perfectly
    As strong as a bolt action
    Available in some interesting euro calbers

    Sorry no !
    I sold all my Winchester lever actions as a lot to a guy up North
    And decided to sink the funds into some serious vintage single shots

    Is your one a straight stock? Is it a factory recoil pad?

    Just buy a Baikal. You're not cool or handsome enough to own a Blaser, ya mongrel.
