Exceptional hunting, shooting sports & commercial property opportunity in Mürzzuschlag, Austria
A unique business opportunity – for sale or lease
Dear prospective buyers and tenants,
For positive personal reasons, and after 42 insurance years in the firearms business, Mr. Gerold Gissing has decided to offer GISSING WAFFEN for sale or lease.
In the event of a sale or lease, Mr. Gissing would, of course, be available to ensure a smooth and seamless transition as he has maintained an excellent relationship with his nearly 9,000 customers over many years.
The location also offers considerable potential for an expanded business concept. Possible additions could include the manufacture and sale of hunting-ground infrastructure and equipment, the dealing in game meat, as well as the sale of off-road and hunting ground vehicles and other related products. With regard to Austria's new gun control law, the establishment of a hunting academy or training school could also represent a highly attractive addition.
The property is situated in the heart of an area surrounded by hunting grounds, where numerous well-established and financially well-positioned hunting clients of the Austrian Federal Forests pursue their passion.
Customers purchasing a hunting firearm do not necessarily want to carry a newly purchased firearm hundreds of metres through a shopping centre. They value the ability to collect a professionally sighted-in firearm on private premises and drive away directly from the property. This is a unique advantage of this location.
In case of a lease arrangement the indoor shooting gallery, gun ranges and various warehouse and hall areas could potentially be operated by Mr. Gerold Gissing himself.
This spacious 12,157 m² industrial site is located in a green and exceptionally attractive setting and offers a wide range of opportunities to take your business to the next level.
The extensive site allows for flexible planning and future expansion. The property provides ample space to organise operational processes efficiently while retaining significant scope for further development.
Located in Mürzzuschlag, Styria, the property combines an attractive natural setting with excellent strategic advantages for commercial operators.
Its outstanding transport connections ensure convenient access for both employees and customers. The location provides excellent links to surrounding municipalities and facilitates efficient movement of goods and people.
The major cities of Vienna and Graz can both be reached in approximately one hour by car.
The location would also be highly suitable for a firearms wholesaler combined with a retail operation.
Due to the property's distinctive layout and infrastructure, numerous additional commercial uses are possible.
The site includes approximately 700 m² of warehouse space with almost 5 metres of ceiling height, including the possibility of direct truck loading.
One of the property's most distinctive features is its direct access to the Mürz River.
This opens up additional potential uses, including, for example, fly fishing and related recreational activities.
The company's property borders the Mürz River along a stretch of several hundred metres.
Key Features

Access to the property is via a private bridge crossing the Mürz River, further contributing to the site's exceptional privacy and independence.
