Hartmann & Weiss Take Down Bolt Action Rifle

Hartmann & Weiss bolt action rifles are based on the Mauser 98 bolt action, which enjoys a reputation of excellent reliability throughout the world. For the different caliber sizes they produce three action lengths: the short, standard and magnum action. All three actions are available in a normal and take-down version. After engraving, the outer metalwork of Hartmann & Weiss rifles is either color case-hardened, blued or greyed to suit the clients' requirements. Each handcrafted rifle is completely bespoke, designed for individual hunting requirements to meet the particular requests of customers when it comes to the optics, the engraving, the balance and the handling. Otto Weiss finished his training as a gunsmith in 1955 in Suhl, and Gerhard Hartmann finished his in Hamburg in 1959. Otto Weiss furthered his knowledge in Switzerland and England, and Gerhard Hartmann went to work in Austria. The two met in 1963 at a renowned sporting gun and rifle retailer in Hamburg and, in 1965, joined to produce individually crafted hunting guns. In 1980, Hartmann & Weiss was the first German company to manufacture Mauser Magnum bolt-actions as well as the short action in its original design after the war. Simultaneously, production of the Hagn action system was incorporated. Hartmann & Weiss is located in Hamburg today and makes side-by-side shotguns, over-and-under shotguns, double-barrel and bolt action rifles. Since 2007, they have been producing single-barrel side-lock break-down rifles with ejectors as well. Each gun is custom made to the customer’s needs and specifications.
