Hello everyone!!

All of my hunting career ive wanted a classic double. Ive owned several Mauser 98 in different calibers ranging from 9.3x62 ( my favorite) to 460.
I have now pulled the trigger so to speak and purchased an Thomas Bland 450NE - London. And i cant wait for the Licens to drop in the mail.
And would you do anything prior to shooting it? its I think its about 60-100 years old.

Now about the ammo, is there still new Kynoch ammo available??

Regards Johan H Andersson
 
Yes, ive found Hornady for sale at my dealer, then i will se if i find some old Kynoch boxes for sale. I will post pictures asap. I will mostly try it on hogs in Sweden at the moment, but hopefully in Africa later.
It has to go back to its former adventure grounds

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?
