Sauer 505 ErgoLux Left-Hand Complete Package including Optics

The Sauer 505 ErgoLux Repeating Rifle with the Noble-Luxurious Wooden Stock – here in the Left-Handed Version with Optics – Combines Ballistic Precision with Timeless Elegance
Since 1751, the company J.P. Sauer & Sohn has been producing one generation of rifles after another in the highest quality. Beyond the precision of the rifles, a constant has been the wooden stocks, which remain very popular even with the advent of new materials. Accordingly, there is also the successor model to the Sauer 404 rifle in versions with various wooden stocks, including, as here, for left-handed shooters. The wooden stocks combined with a solid steel housing and a cold-hammered barrel make the Sauer 505 ErgoLux a hunting rifle that impresses all around.

The StockMany hunters swear by the natural material wood for tactile reasons. The ErgoLux stock made of walnut in the left-handed version is available in wood classes 2 to 5. Its sophisticated shape significantly compensates for felt recoil and gives the rifle great stability, regardless of the shooting position you adopt. The cheek piece has been further optimized compared to previous versions, making your contact with the rifle even more organic. In conjunction with the ergonomic pistol grip, you will feel one with your Sauer 505 ErgoLux when you shoot. The stock length is 36.5 mm plus the dimensions of the stock cap.

The System: Steel Housing and Steel LockThe heart of the Sauer 505 repeating rifle, its system, consists of a solid steel housing and a one-piece steel lock. Steel has significantly lower friction losses compared to aluminum. Therefore, with the Sauer 505 system, you experience an incredibly smooth chambering and a quiet cycling action. This elegant functionality will become apparent to you with every shot.

The Manual CockingThe Sauer 404 rifle excelled with its highly comfortable and safe manual cocking. In developing the successor model Sauer 505, the manual cocking has been further improved, both in terms of usability and safety. By extending the cocking path, you need to exert even less force. With a light thumb pressure, you can cock your rifle immediately before the shot, and just as easily relax it for unloading.

TriggerThe proven Quattro trigger with its four possible weight settings has also been implemented in the Sauer 505 repeating rifle. With the right setting for you, you can be sure that the trigger breaks crystal clear and that you have the precisely suitable trigger weight. In the Sauer 505 rifle, the lowest setting has been further reduced from 500 g to 350 g. The other resistances are the same as in the Sauer 404 rifle: 750 g, 1,000 g, and 1,250 g. The adjustment is made with the Sauer universal key, which can be placed in the fore-end when the trigger is pulled. Thanks to this option, you can be sure that the trigger is always dry and free of play, minimizing the risk of a shot going awry due to malfunctions.

The BarrelThe barrel of the Sauer 505 is cold-hammered and ensures an extremely precise shot. The muzzle diameter is 17 mm, and the muzzle is equipped with an M15x1 thread for a suppressor. The Sauer 505 repeating rifle is delivered with a barrel with a smooth profile. The barrel length varies between 47 cm and 62 cm depending on the caliber. The corrosion protection of the barrels and all other steel surfaces of the Sauer 505 is a plasma nitriding. Stocks and barrels are compatible with the Sauer 404, allowing you to use them on both models.

MagazineUnlike the Sauer 404 model, which had a metal magazine, the magazine of the Sauer 505 is made of polymer, making it lighter. The magazines are designed for the chosen calibers and hold between 2 to 5 cartridges depending on the version. An unintentional release of the magazine button is prevented by the integrated magazine safety MagLock.
