     Classic DL Traveller from Schultz and Larsen is a sensible choice for those who want a stable rifle for hard continuous use, where functionality is paramount. It is a semi-takedown rifle, which is quick and easy to disassemble with the included tool. The running channel is milled larger at the same time as there are holes through the shaft to loosen and tighten the pipe.
