Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Single Shots SS actions

Anybody remember Reidel actions, I think they came from CA. ,but can't remember. I bought while in GS school but sold it before I built a rifle on it.

Mornin', rrc

just hit the DeHass library here,...so far nothing's turned up, by that name.

Just exercised my Google-Fu and learned that they were a small rifle manufacturing company in California during the 70's & 80's. They patented a falling block rifle action that outwardly looked like a High Wall.

Production numbers were low and values for complete rifles are somewhere in the $500-600 range per the latest thread I read.

Here is an old auction for one of the rifles;

And a short thread on ASSRA;

Thanks, I will send in a PM, like I said I bought one while at CST, but sold it before I built anything on it. I am kind of in the market for a SS, really like the looks of the TCR but they are hard to come by in the South, probably going to get a No. 1, I had one in Swift many yrs ago, looking now for a .308 to play with.
