At 1:10, the mother of all flinches.

At 1:35, someone that looks familiar.


Nice little video (theirs on barrel regulation is also nice and has one of the best explanations of the why I’ve seen/heard/read).
 
Dang... I really want a double now!:rolleyes:

Big flinch on second shot....and what seemed like a poor first shot choice to this guy who has never hunted ele.

Was that our own Matt85?

I can’t believe that the PH didn’t hold him back. To try to hit the brain from that angle is about as difficult as it gets.

And obviously yanking on that first trigger again trying to get off the second shot. Really does take a bit of practice to make moving to the second trigger instinctive. One of the best investments a new double rifle owner can make is a SxS shotgun with double triggers and membership at a nearby sporting clays range.

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
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?
