    Ordered my LAST African Safari rifle at DSC this year...

    This looks like the most correct solution, let us know how it goes.

    Gun hand rail.

    Very cool project and great execution . Since you used a real shotgun, do the hammers and triggers still function? Well done!

    Ordered my LAST African Safari rifle at DSC this year...

    And there had better be a bunch of swag when it arrives the second time, for all the lost time and emotion

    Ordered my LAST African Safari rifle at DSC this year...

    This is simply horrible. After the amateurish engraving, the unwanted case colouring, now not following the specifications for a left handed rifle on a bespoke rifle, I would be furious. Especially as I cannot tell if anything big was done to correct the first two mistakes so far. I would...

    Recommendations for elephant skin tanning

    EU: Looking for Trijicon SRO/RMR 1MOA

    Dear AH, As the title suggests, I’m looking to find a red dot for my 458Lott CZ550. Used, in reasonable condition is fine. I can buy them in Europe, but new prices I have found here are around 1000€ (while in the US one can find them half this price.) 1K€/1.1K$ is not what I’m willing to spend...

    Range finding binos

    For those that have RF integrated bino’s for a long time, have you ever experienced any issues, downgrade in capabilities due to the electronics? Glass is glass, and most binos will easily function well for many many decades, there is nothing to break with normal use. So even “expensive” glass...

    Maybe this was written in jest, but “art nouveau only offended people”? https://i.pinimg.com/originals/cd/b1/c2/cdb1c274300ca98ea464c2288c89ddad.jpg https://i.pinimg.com/originals/1d/92/10/1d92103e956a06278c4345b84967694d.jpg Now tastes can differ, but offensive???
