Your presentations on these high quality arms are very interesting. I hope you post more content in the future.

Nice video, great to see that you guys like our older style weapons. I am from Germany and I do have a hunting license, so I thought I would give you a little bit of input. If you have a hunting license in Germany you can basically buy any number of long guns - except fully automatic rifles off course - as long as you renew your license every 1 to 3 years. Weapons are registered on WBKs, that´s short for Waffenbesitzkarte, and one holds 8 items. If you acquired 8 guns or silencers and the card is full, you simply get another one. Nowadays here in Germany, new hunters are kind of pushed in the direction of the more modern firearms - actually most of the time while still being in the courses to obtain their first licence. If you talk to many of them they all have a Blaser R8 very high up on their list. That leads to the price of a run of the mill Sauer, Simson or Fortuna Drilling dropping significantly. Actually I bought my two, a 7x57r and 8x57irs complete with Swarovski variable Scopes for less than thousand euros each recently. And they are both in pristine condition. It is kind of sad to see that these fine guns are not appreciated any more. There is an old saying here: „Mit einem Drilling bist Du immer gut angezogen“, meaning that you always have the right clothes on when you take a Drilling, and I myself really like to take them hunting.

From my understanding (from having talked with many German gun dealers), the prices of drillings dropped dramatically because of: 21st century. New hunters generally don't take their grandpa's drilling into the field. They'd rather buy one of those modern, modular Blaser R8 rifles. And perhaps one or two shotguns. Downside of owning an old gun is that parts might break, and having new parts made by a gunsmith is ridiculously expensive. Also, for humanely dispatch wounded game, we prefer either long knives, spears (Saufeder) or a handgun. Another point is: amount of guns. A drilling is a perfect gun, if you plan to only buy one gun in your whole life (usually had something to do with money). Those days are gone. You can own a certain number of guns on your license, but if that's not enough, you can simply get another license.

@@stevenbodum3405 I only know one young hunter (Jungjäger) with a drilling. A friend of mine. She's literally on welfare, used almost all of her savings for the hunting course. She didn't have money left to splurge on a shotgun, a rifle, a scope, etc. She could buy a decent drilling (2 x 12, 9.3x72r, .22lr insert, Zeiss scope) for 500 euros from the widow of a hunter. With our hunting group (of which she's also a member), we all put some money in a hat to give her that gun for her birthday.

I have seen and shot them, but never owned one. I have wanted one since the 70's and I was even stationed in Germany.

I've wanted to have a gun like that since I was a teenager, nearly 60 years ago but they were always out of my price range. I wish they still were if it meant the people could own them easily. Every person has the right to self defense and the right to put food on the table.
