Might say it was made in Germany but they weren`t !
After the Olympia, Rottweil offered a gun made by FIAS in Italy but I`m sure the Olympia wasn`t made by FIAS.

Thanks, Sanjay and Grumpy.

Sanjay, I think I have seen that one and another which was going with even more barrels. I think the price was $3,495.00

Price aside, I would be interested in other details and trivia as well. So, if you do come across any do let me know.

The gun WAS rated quite well in its time - a bit ancient now.
$3,500 for a Rottweil Olympia ? !!! It didn`t cost that new - or anything like that amount. I knew of one that was going for £550.

$ 3,500 for the gun, aluminium case and a truck load of barrels.

Will post the link if I find it again.

Yep, 550 to 650 quid happens to be the U.K. going rate for one.
