It's a flat top Shikar, but a gunsmith who worked for kliengunther says this is a rifle built after kliengunther left his company and started his own custom deal in seguin Texas. I just bought a redfield mount for it. And I don't like the way it looks. The bore was scoped last year and it is amazing! Very nice !
Set trigger. Has some dings in the wood, scratches on the steel. I got my eye on another 7 mag And want to simplify my life.
A retired big game guide sold me this rifle years ago, needed the money to take his grandkids to Disney world. He had gotten the rile as a tip. Said it was too nice to use. And he hardly ever shot it.
I harvested a Barbados Ram with it. It had at that time a bubba custom weaver type scope bases affixed with sheet metal screws. A gunsmith removed the bases and the threads were not harmed. I bought the redfield base and I don't. Like it. I am going to try to cut my losses before I buy different rings and bases. And so here maybe a bargain for a kliengunther fan!
Asking $1095 shipped conus in hard case.
Thanks.
More exhausted photos available, and inspection period offered.
First I take it gets it!

They were custom very nice rifles. Built in Germany then shipped and assembled and accurized in Seguin, Tx. All had a guarantee in accuracy of 1/2 moa. Great price
Hasbeen1945 knows more about these rifles than anybody. He knew the old man well, had work done after he sold the business. Mike could tell you what action this is. It doesn’t look like a Voere K-15.
I have one that is identical except for a much more Weatherby like stock. It is marked Black Forest Model 7000 Marketing Unlimited Inc. on the other side it says Voere made in Germany.
At any rate very neat rifles, I enjoy mine. Good luck with the sale.
These rifles were originally imported by Kleingunther and marketed as the "Poor Man's Weatherby". Kleingunther imported the rifles, then accurized and sold them. Most are only marked Voere Shikar, Voerenbach, Germany. After Kleingunther they were imported by a couple of other groups like Marketing Unlimited, but the Kleingunther V14's are the most sought after.
The stocks looked like the Monte Carlo style Weatherby stocks of the time. Most shoot better than 1/2". My 270 will easily put 5 shots in a dime.
If this was a 30-06 I would have bought it for my son!
The early k15 insta fire had the same magazine. The floor plate swings down to remove the magazine. These magazines are unobtainable. Double set triggers can be found on either the k14 or k15. Mr. K designed this rifle and Voere of Germany produced it. Hasbeen
