KRIEGHOFF Side-by-Side
Sidelock Shotgun
The Krieghoff Company has formed a partnership with German
master gunsmith Jens Ziegenhahn and proudly offers a hand built shotgun of the
highest quality worthy of the name Krieghoff.
The gun is missing the ‘teutonic’ look one might expect from a German
gunmaker, but surprises with its elegant and traditional lines resembling
British best sidelock shotguns.
One hundred percent German made, this gun was produced to
explore the opportunities for a high quality Krieghoff game gun in the upper
price segment.
The Krieghoff Side-by-Side Sidelock Shotgun’s main
attributes are very elegant lines combined with excellent handling and balance.
The round body and clean, sleek sidelock contours stand out immediately.
