Looking for any details of Peter Mann Jones (now deceased). He was a BGH in Kenya in the early 70's apprenticed to Stan Laurence Brown. He had his own company, Peter Mann Jones Safaris Ltd, registered in Nairobi. I am trying to trace his family and any descendants - any connections or detail anybody can provide would be appreciated.
My thanks to any responders, You can PM me.

Hi Mark I briefly worked for Peter Mann Jones when backpacking in Cairns Queensland (He had a place in Cairns) around 1992. Peter stayed with his Wife (Apparently the daughter of someone high up in IBM computers) over the weekend and during the week he lived in a cabin about 3 miles off the main road up an old logging track in an area of rainforest North of Cooktown. As far as BGH I know he had a trophy room in his house in Cairns. I believe he also served as an officer with the Kenyan Rifles. I worked doing odd jobs on the property but had to leave after a month as I wouldn't put up with his bossy behaviour lol. Regards Steve Knox UK

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

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

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?
