I like the way that one is set up, especially the shotgun style trigger guard. Nice. I'll bet you like it the more you find out about what makes a Mannlicher a Mannlicher.

Absolutely--pull the sheep's teeth to disarm the wolf!

I don't know why it didn't occur to me sooner to have my double trigger worked on to lighten the front trigger only pull. It's on my short-list. I can't comment on how much an improvement it will be--if you do it first, please post the results. You could contact another strictly M-S collector...

Dang straight!!!

Vapor barriers?

Well, I haven't eaten anyone/anything that has eaten anyone, but I chuckle at one line in a Western movie where a fellow was asked if he had...."(spit into fire) Hell, meat's meat." By your definition, you probably shouldn't eat lion or maybe leopard?

Ever look back and wish you could have been a rascal and dropped that buck 3 yards on the wrong side of a fence? I can still see a wide racked, short tined old gray boney buck walking toward me 3 yds to the wrong side. Right things sometimes hurt a little.

Yeah, yeah, that's what I was going to say (...as you guys go completely over my head....) lol

I KNEW I had seen one of those somewhere.

People ooh and aah when I hunt with a drilling, while they are toting auto shotguns that they actually paid more money for....strange times. Did you ever think you would see auto shotguns sell for today's prices?

I will say that when the critters are eating the flowers when they bloom in the desert, it makes a positive difference. One gentleman from Germany used to go to Namibia at that time, as eating the meat then provided regression of his multiple sclerosis!! Perhaps doctors should investigate why?

in Africa they seem to use something like a big levered paper cutter to chop it up. I think an actual dedicated paper cutter might be great.

1 Impala liver--a real surprise 2 sand grouse 3 Gemsbok 4 oxtail the COOK is the most important factor

I guess what I forgot to spell out above--if you think things need to be done differently, then organize and get an exemption like the town in Connecticut that had an "in-town" archery season, or the farmers who got an animal control exemption.

One dead, long black mamba on road, one small black mamba in front of me in the grass, about 2 1/2 feet away, but moved on, two puff adders.
