Alternative Source for Hammerli Parts.

Of course, R.I.P. Larry...

I found a great source of Hammerli 208 parts: http://www.schiesssport-billharz.de/

Yes, it's in Germany, but by ordering online the process was completely transparent and it was just as easy as ordering from Brownell's, and even easier and faster then ordering from Larrys.

I ordered about a dozen different parts and all were in stock. Prices are virtually the same as Larrys, shipping was 11 euros from Germany to USA, and the package arrived in 7 days. I did not try and order using the online cart, but emailed her a list of the parts I wanted and she emailed me an invoice which I paid using Paypal.

The owner says she'd be happy to deal with customers from the USA and that it's no particular hassle. Box was packed well and parts arrived in great shape.

Hopefully this helps a few people.

Thanks BT, always good to have alternative sources.  Do you know if there is a way to view their website in English (many German sites offer this), I am not good negotiating web sites. Or just email with the question on English? (I did take German in College, nicht gut).

Google translate is...sometimes adequate.

Super! (that means super in German.)

I use Google Translate on this site, but the names of the parts get kinda messed up in translation. I use the part numbers and the original Hammerli parts diagram+parts list to decipher what's what. English emails to the owner are answered in pretty darn good English.

Excellent information, thank you for posting this. I placed my order yesterday and got an immediate response - this is a great vendor.
