    Yeah looked up the jäger but looks closer to a stearling model 20/20p than what i have?
    That book we found on google said there was a few models of the autoloading 22 but not meny were made

    An interesting rifle! I have never encountered one before. It just goes to prove what a diverse selection of firearms exists in NZ. There is damn near one of eveything here, and many treasures yet to be discovered!

    Thanks gundoc

    I took it apart the other day to see how it works ill tell you what the little things built solid 3 massive gide rods 2 at about 4mm dia and one 6mm!!! Massive springs x3 theres no little bits in there its all huge
    The bolts is double the size of say a ruger 10/22

    And the funny thing is it's such a little gun to handle


    I'll get a chance to shoot it soon and see how it goes but unfortunately after ive had a play it's going to have to go back on the market
    I shouldn't of really brought it in the 1st place more important things to spend money on but im sure @Tommy will buy it he likes strange stuff

    I did the same a few years ago.
    Went to Perazzi to get a gun fitted and got taken to the restaurant across the road for lunch. I had no idea what I was eating until my host informed me most visitors don't like horsemeat!!

    Same here. Got fed woodcock with the old guy from the Rizzini showroom! An interesting town, amazing what you find in the nooks and crannies there.
