Nice, congrats !
You bet. Knowing I would only take one lion in my life and knowing I could not import I wanted to do something special. I took great pictures with my nice Cannon Rebel Camera. I then selected the best one and googled artists that could produce an oil on canvass painting from a picture. I chose a 48 by 48 size and paid $400 for an absolutely incredible painting perfect in every way. I then paid $1800 to have it professionally mounted with distressed olive wood

Looks awesome, better is every time you look at it those lifetime memories will return front and center. Lets not forget how many times you get to re-tell the story every time someone sees it and asks.
Well done.

Hello,
Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.
Thank you for your time,
Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
