New member looking for a contact

Thanks, I'm getting old enough, 76yrs, and think my hunting days are slipping by. I have a few nice big rifle caliber rifles, but don't know if I'll be able to use them.
My old 416 Rigby

I have some pretty rifles, but they shoot well and need to be used.
Thanks for all the welcomes.

Butch, for a "used" gun, that sure is pretty. Looks like it just came out of the box.

Yes sir, all of mine are built to use. As I stated above, age "76" and after 5 neck and spine surgeries, I'm not as steady and able to walk well on rough and grown up land as when I was younger.

Welcome! Beautiful rifles for sure

Morning Butch, you've got me shaded by a year. I don't get around very well either. My neck and spine are fine but my knees and ankles have seen better days. What make is your 416 Rigby? I too like that stock.

Hi Butch! Welcome to our forum. Glad you found your contact. I am pretty sure you will have no problem selling those gorgeous rifles to a new home when you decide it is time to so. We have more than a few members that are likely already thinking of becoming that new home someday!

It is a 1917 Enfield with work done by Nick Hughes and James Anderson. I was fortunate to be able to find a high serial number,unused, receiver to start.

Sure not looking to sell anytime soon. Still have 2 in the mill right now. I love beautiful rifles.

It is great to have you over here.

I hope you decide to set a spell. We can always use some wisdom from a guy who's been around the block a few times!

And we love rifle porn, so keep it coming!

Nice rifles. Any trophy pics form hunts? With pretty rifles in them of course.

Well, I'm not much on photos. Here is a Axis deer with my little Mauser in 250-3000. I do have memory scars on the stock from kicking it accidentally when it was resting against a tree.

It is a Peruvian turned down to small ring.

Oh my - that is a classy little rifle in a cool and classy cartridge.
