505 Gibbs

Gentlemen, I picked up the rifle from my FFL this afternoon and had the chance to look at it for the first time just a few minutes ago. It is actually much nicer than the photos would lead one to believe. This rifle is very, very well put together and attractive! The quality of the metal finish rivals most factory rifles and the stock quality is just this side of exceptional! I feel like a kid on Christmas morning! Thank you Krish, for returning the rifle earlier this year. I'm happy that your standards are as high as they are! And thank you Jeff, for a smooth, easy transaction and for passing along such a wonderful firearm to me at a fantastic price. I couldn't be happier!!
 
Beautiful piece there for sure. Didn't realize they required cannons to be serial numbered! Let us know how it shoots.

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts

Hi PaulB,
I have a Ballard Arms Model 1885 chambered for .333 Jeffery Flanged. Do you have any idea where I can get ammo for this?

I am new to this forum so I am sorry if I am doing something wrong!
Thank You!
