DP has been making EMF repro rifles for a long time. Around the first part of the 70's I believe. Had a couple in and out of my hands. Pretty nice rifles and they both shot well. Triggers were nice (both double set) but the hammer spring was a bit weak which made for a bit longer lock time. One was actually weak enough to cause a hammer rebound to half cock. Not good for a $700+ rifle.
