We are proud to introduce the Krieghoff Model KX-5, worthy successor to our popular KS-5. A pure single barrel trap gun, the KX-5 features all of the attributes of the KS-5 Special, plus many refinements and new features. Available in 32" or 34" barrels with choke tubes (titanium choke tube option available), the KX-5 has an adjustable rib which allows you to lower or raise the point of impact, a hallmark of Krieghoff trap guns.
In addition, the unique adjustable rib, calibrated at the factory to achieve a 65% / 35% pattern, allows you to change the point-of-impact quickly and conveniently. By altering the height of the rib, you can vary the pattern from flat shooting 50% / 50% to nearly 90% / 10% high. The free-floating adjustable rib is locked in place at the muzzle and breech end by set screws.
By loosening the screws, the rib can be moved up or down by rotating the small knurled nut located below the front bead. As the rib is raised or lowered, it rotates on a short radius around a cam located just in front of the mono block. When the desired rib height is reached and both set screws are tightened, you may re-adjust the comb of the KX-5 stock for your preferred site picture and the gun is ready to go.
Also found on the KX-5 is a new forend iron design with a push button lock which provides a better and stronger latch to the barrel. Part of the forend iron which mates the receiver is visible, similar to the K-80. In addition to strength, this modification gives the receiver a more elegant, streamlined look. The popular, adjustable trigger borrowed from the K-80, can now also be found on the KX-5. The trigger pull is easily adjustable for both weight and sear engagement. Relelase triggers are also available.
