Recently, I've noticed a few of the ZG47s that have been imported into the US having the "barrel tension bolt" (for lack of a better term) removed. Some have even had the hole deleted and filled with a wood plug. Is there any reason for this? Are they trying to float the barrel? Has anyone noticed a difference in shooting between the screw in place or removed?

I'm talking about about the bolt that goes up through the forend and connects to a nut on the bottom of the barrel. ZKKs have these as well.

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?
