No studio photos with 1875 steamer chests, ivory or zebra skins 
But, a couple of my favorites where utility, form and beauty can blend.
Top- original 54 cal M 1841 “Mississippi Rifle”

Here are couple. Below is my HSR CZ-550 in 375 H&H before going to Africa, and the next one in the Eastern Cape, South Africa.
Below is my Weatherby Athena IV in 12 ga, this was in South Dakota.

These are probably only beautiful to me because they are meaningful to me...

I posted these on another thread. My mother wanted me to start taking some of my dad’s guns home to put in my safe since he is 91 and no longer able to hunt.
Pre 64 model 70 in 30-06
Heavy duck model 12 3”magnum
Both were bought in the 50’s, the rifle in South Dakota and the shotgun in Carbondale Illinois.

I'll also add my Rigby Highland Stalker in .275. It has performed beautifully on two continents.

Is that a 308 Marlin Express?

My mother has that exact chest. Never seen another exactly like it.

.338 Marlin Express. It is my go-to rifle. One of the best purchases I have ever made. I bought them when they were common(ish) for something like 700.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
