S125 - Gibbs Short Range Rifle
After the many successes achieved with the Gibbs rifle (S225) we decided to make this second version, retaining the manufacturing and finish qualities while equipping the rifle with a barrel especially made for target shooting at 100-150 meters. The specific twist and the broached rifling provide bullet stabilization at the shorter distance, ensuring hitting the target with very good accuracy.

S207 - African Hunter
In the classic English style, a new hunting version of the Gibbs rifle, powerful enough for big game hunting. The rifled barrel is .72 caliber, as used in the Pedersoli Safari Express double rifle, which performs very well in African dangerous game hunting. The rifle is equipped with the Ghost tang sight: the small eye piece ring enables a quick instinctive aiming at the target, while quickly shouldering the rifle. The open ring provides a clear sight picture in low light conditions. The blue barrel is completed with an interchangeable ramp front sight with anti-reflection checkering.
