EMPIRE RIFLES TAKE DOWN/SWITCH BARREL OPTION

East Africa Rifle, .375 H&H Empire Grade with Take Down Option

Take Down Option: Empire Rifles provides a Take Down/Switch Barrel Option for any model and grade of rifle.

The Empire Rifles Take Down/Switch Barrel option is inspired by the British design of the 1920's.  The Empire Rifles design is unparalleled in simplicity, with a locking pin and spring being the only 2 moving parts.  No tools are ever required to assemble or disassemble the rifle.

Simplicity: Take Down Instructions (right hand rifle):

1.  Grasp rifle firmly around receiver with left hand, place butt on left hip, and slide locking pin to the rear with left hand index finger

2.  Loosen forend/barrel assembly by striking right side with palm of right hand

3. Carefully unscrew barrel and remove.

Accuracy Guaranty: Empire's industry-leading accuracy guaranty applies to rifles with the Take Down Option--accurate, reliable, and fitting into a compact case.

Additional Barrels: additional barrels within the cartridge families are available. 

Cartridge Families: additional barrels are available for cartridges within a group.  For example, Phillip V. of Austin, TX selected an Empire Standard Rifle in Field Grade with barrels in the following Group 1 cartridges: 25.06 Remington, 30.06 Springfield, and 9.3X62 Mauser.
