Parkwest Arms has announced its SD-76 Take-Down Rifle System—a compact, modular evolution of the Model 76 platform, designed specifically for the traveling hunter. The SD-76 blends traditional techniques like a hand-checkered stock and precision-blueprinted action with modern, state-of-the-art manufacturing. Walnut blanks are carefully selected for stocks, and the mechanical systems they surround have been proven in the field.
Parkwest's Take-Down Rifle System is a continuation of that philosophy. It expands the SD-76’s versatility even further, allowing users to break the rifle into two compact components for easy travel—without compromising reliability or accuracy.
Key Features of the SD-76 Take-Down System:
- Non-threaded Breeching System
Designed for long-term durability, this breech avoids the wear common in traditional interrupted-thread systems and maintains a consistent, repeatable fit. - Foolproof Headspace Locking
The bolt head locks directly into the barrel sleeve, guaranteeing precise and repeatable headspacing with every reassembly—vital for both safety and precision. - Ultra-Compact Travel Profile
Once disassembled, the rifle fits discreetly in a non-traditional case—perfect for international travel, small aircraft, and situations requiring low-profile transport.
Multi-Caliber Flexibility
Available in single or dual-caliber configurations, the SD-76 Take-Down adapts to the shooter’s specific mission. Ideal pairings like .375 H&H and .300 H&H offer versatility across plains and dangerous game, while powerhouse calibers such as the .404 Jeffery allow for compact, briefcase-style transport without sacrificing performance.
The SD-76 Take-Down is available in three distinct models—Dark Continent, Savanna, and The Legend—each tailored to meet the unique demands of different environments. Whether navigating remote backcountry or traveling internationally for a once-in-a-lifetime hunt, the Parkwest Arms SD-76 Take-Down Rifle System offers a blend of tradition, modern features, and adaptability.
