    Learned a new word Schnabel

    Yes I’m a rooky, but I know cool. Who today would take the time and expense of putting a graceful curve on both the wood and metal to match.

    four pics to thumb through:

    A beautiful new toy you have there, and if you like the Diana Mod.50 with it's 'Schnabel' end (many many derrivatives therein), you will simply LOVE the BSA Centenary, Stutzen Tap Loader, and Stutzen RB-2 Schnabel ends, too (there, I have just spent your next £1,200 for you lol ) ...

    That’s the problem with new words they cost you money! I have always loved the Stutzen but never heard the word Schnabel. I guess you can have a Schnabel without a Stutzen, but I’m guessing almost all Stutzens have a Schnabel? Lol
    But the cool part of this Schnabel it’s a combination of both the metal lever and the stock.
