Prophet River Firearms

 

ANSCHÜTZ Match 54 Target rifles are famous for their solid design, safety, functionality and unsurpassed performance around the world. The ANSCHÜTZ 54 match action dominates National, International, Olympic and World Championship competitions in the small-bore rifle disciplines. 

 

Enter the 1700 Series of Hunting Repeaters from ANSCHÜTZ based on the famous Match 54 Action. Ownership of such a hunting repeater does not only mean to possess a master piece of decades old German Craftsmanship but the accuracy and precision you have come to expect from ANSCHÜTZ.

 

ANSCHÜTZ repeating rifles offer wonderfully crafted, extremely precise rimfire rifles for competition or for hunting small game and predators.

 

 

Action:

The bolt with dual locking lugs is seated eccentrically in the receiver to give the action screws more support for better stock bedding. The bolt is cam locking. Fast and trouble-free repeating is guaranteed by claw extractor and the additional cartridge holder with ejector. This precision makes ANSCHÜTZ hunting repeaters a reliable partner in the field and in the forest. The receiver is equipped with an 11 mm (7/16") wide grooved receiver rail and is additionally drilled and tapped for scope mounts. The bolt face is recessed for full cartridge head support. An independent lateral bolt stop limits the travel of the bolt and thus protects the trigger as well. An additional gas escape groove guarantees safety.

 

Safety:

The sliding safety catch on the right-hand side, blocks the trigger sear in the safe position and simultaneously lifts the trigger sear and bolt release latch

 

Trigger:

ANSCHÜTZ hunting triggers are hand crafted to the same precision as the match triggers in the ANSCHÜTZ target rifle. The low-weight, hardened and finely polished triggers enable a fast and precise release of the trigger.

 

Barrel:

The barrels are manufactured using the same special process perfected for the ANSCHÜTZ target rifles. The same attention to detail is given to the fitting of the receiver and the counterbore at the muzzle.

 

Monte Carlo Stock:

Oiled walnut stock with Monte Carlo stylings and Monte Carlo roll-over cheek piece, Schnabel forend, non-slip skip-line checkering on pistol grip and forend with borders. Finished with rosewood cap, black synthetic butt plate and sling swivel studs.
