Schuetzen Gun Co. Freund Sharps - everetto - 10-31-2019

Just received my Freund sharps from Schuetzen Gun Co, a custom rifle built by Richard to my specs, and engraved by Master engraver Marty Rabeno. The majority of the engraving is a duplication of a famous original Freund rifle. The rifle features the double extractors and the camming breech block, which are some of Freund's improvements. It is a 50-90 with a heavy 32 inch barrel. This composite pic does not do it justice, I will post a few more pics soon.

Very handsome rifle. There is something almost magical about a Freund Sharps that takes the 74 to a new level. I hope you get many years of good service from your new rifle.

Everetto,
Thank you for posting pictures, a couple weeks ago I got the bug to start a Freund Sharps - yours is very motivating. Mine's moving forward finally as the right time of year is approaching... gun building season (winter months) and looking outside right now it's all white!

Please let us know how it shoots Big Grin
Regards,
Greg
