Description:

This is a beautiful example of a Blaser S2 express double rifle. The frame, trigger guard and break lever are engraved with English scroll patterns. The right side lock is relief engraved with a scene of an African elephant, and there is a jungle scene of a cape buffalo on the left lock. The underside of the frame has an English scroll pattern and "Blaser". The lower left front of the scene is signed ""f" on top of "M". The breech end of the barrels have a 1 1/4 inch wedge of English scroll engraving. The upper left side of the barrel near the breech is marked "S2 DB", "Blaser", "Germany/Cal. .500/416 N.E. 3 1/4" CAL. .500/.416 N.E. 3 1/4" Nr. S/01363". Solid rib with a ramped front with a blade front sight and a mid ramp with a fixed white line "u" rear sight. Bright double triggers, tang mounted thumb push cocking piece, blue barrels, grey on the remaining metal surfaces, and mounted with a very nicely figured deluxe multi-point checkered walnut Schnabel forearm with contrasting forend and pistol grip stock with a rhino head engraved silver cap ("835" hallmark indicating the purity of the silver at the bottom), cheek piece, solid recoil pad, 1/4 inch spacer and sling swivel stud.

Rating Definition:

Excellent. The rifle retains 99% plus original blue and grey finish showing only light handling marks. The wood is very good overall; the stock has been re-oiled and shows some finish loss near the butt and overall some very small dings, light handling marks and very crisp checkering. The markings and engraving are crisp and clear. Mechanically excellent.
