Well . . . it does have a good warranty. :)

Holy crappers! I never even conceived such a prohibition/penalty.

I had an acquaintance go over last May/June with his family. He was recovering from a skiing injury and was still nonweightbearing. He sent me a picture posing behind a buff and I asked him who killed it? He responded that he did! I asked him, how the hell did you do that? You couldn’t even...

The stands are easily found on Amazon etc. I need to get serious about going into selling mode on some guns so I need to keep the stands. Flat out of room. Thanks.

I think $5400 USD in the US is a great deal. Not sure about Belgium.

Wishfulthinker beat me to the punch. :-). For what it is worth, I love both iterations.

Get it for your daughters. If too much for them, oh well. :-). Seriously, great buy. Here are some pics of a pre-Martini.

This is the only picture of my pre-Martini. Later ones from Martini generally have nicer wood and cross bolts are different. 3-pos safety is a little different as well.

I have seen pre-Martini Heym Express' in .416 in excellent condition go for around $8000-$8500 USD. Saw one in .404 closer to $10K at auction with premium. I would buy it sight unseen for $5400 if in the market for one.

I have a .416 Rigby for sale that would beg to differ with you. :-). Good luck with selling. Bump to the top.

It looks like curly maple to me. Shipping will also be inexpensive. I say go for it. :)

A leading economic indicator of the economy being in the crapper is nice guns not selling for a good price. The economy is officially in the crapper. These should have been long gone.

May be a stupid question, but since you are one of our resident gurus, how is there enough hide to cover where the soft bosses were? I have never paid too much attention to caping, but on my hard bossed buff they seem to cape just right up to the boss and seemingly no extra hide to work with...

It was soft and needed some bondo.

Solid deal. I recommended someone go the Hornady route the other day as other offerings are crazy now. Like $8-10 per piece crazy! “Has the whole world gone crazy?” ———Walter Sobchak :)
