Hello,

Is the Pacific Rifle Co. (Zephyr underhammer) still around, and if so has anyone had experience with their rifles? All I can find on the internet for the business ends in deadends. Thanks and God Bless.

Wow...I have not heard talk of the Zephyr Underhammer for several years now.

I know that at one time the Pacific Rifle Co did hit a patch of hard road and had some finanncial hard times. The fact that I have not heard anything of the company for many years does not bode well either.

If I'm not mistaken, Blue Grouse Black Powder was building them for a while. I don't know if they are still around though.

I should have done a search first. Here is a link to their site, which also has a link to Pacific Rifle Co.

The Pacific Rifle link on Blue Grouse's site isn't valid, so they're apparently not in business.
