Information
ANSCHUTZ 1517 THUMBHOLE - The action is a bolt action with cam cocking system, claw extractor and additional cartridge holder and ejector. An 11 mm grooved receiver drilled and tapped for scope mounts makes it possible to attach a telescopic sight. A lateral sliding safety blocks the trigger. The rifle can be loaded and unloaded in the "safe" position. The bolt face is recessed for full cartridge head support. An additional gas escape groove guarantees safety.
The external diameter has been enlarged from 25 mm to 26 mm. This modification entails some advantages. The weight of the receiver was increased by 12 % which makes the barreled action more rigid. In addition the locking surface is enlarged by 15 % which leads to even more safety for the shooter when firing the shot. The new shape of the receiver will be continued in the firing pin nut which makes the system more elegant. In addition the old engraving on the upper side of the prism has been replaced by the more attractive „Wave-Style“.
Trigger -Two stage trigger and single stage trigger correspond to the match triggers, which are used in the ANSCHÜTZ target rifles of the models 1903. The light weight, hardened and polished parts guarantee a smooth and precise release of the trigger.
Barrel - The barrels are manufactured using the same special process perfected for our target rifles. The same attention to detail is given to the fitting of the receiver and the counter bore at the muzzle. The barrel has a thread.
