gunsmith thought I should have something different than DGRs, so I ended up with this...
The scope is an original Unertl 16x with adjustable parallax. Kinda like sighting thru a straw:)
But when that gets old, it has an original Redfield aperture sight with Globe front sight.
Not quite a plains game getup...

Awesome. I would love a Pre-64 built similarly to somewhat resemble the rifle Carlos Hathcock used during his 66 tour.
 
There a lot of fine shotguns out there that are now jealous of the fine piece of wood on that rifle.
 
After reading about Carlos Hathcock, I always wanted to try shooting such rifle, with unertl scope.
Beautiful rifle.

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
