Coming from the guy who said a new double was a ”rounding error” on a buffalo hunt!!

What’s the ETA on the new Shakari?

Well, a Chapuis, VC or a Heym is a rounding error, a Rigby is a tad more. Also, in fairness I would have paid half if I did not ask for a second set of barrels, claw scope mount on that barrel and extra engraving.

Engraving finishes next week. Hoping for a September delivery.

My heart bleeds for those who in December could've afforded a new Rigby double but no more....the struggle is real.

And when’s the first hint with it?

I assume you mean hunt. Next year for lion with hippo and buffalo baits. Will use the scoped .450/400 barrel for lion and the .500 barrel with red dot for the baits.

That sounds like a proper christening.

Need some help here, it’s been a minute since I’ve studied the Constitution but isn’t the fifth amendment supposed to protect the witness from self incrimination not the person or act that is asked about?
I’ve been watching some of the testimony from the congressional hearings on the Biden “cover up” and they are all taking the fifth. Many of the questions have been something like “did you see someone else use the auto pen” not “ did you use the auto pen”.

They are all covering for one another. I bet decrepit Biden didn't sign half the documents, and they used that auto pen like a rubber stamp
I wonder if a judge would allow a 5th amendment defense?

I feel that Trumps cabinet is much better this time around, however, I won't overlook the possibility of someone having their own agenda. Especially, if the lawfare against Trump is not thoroughly investigated to full extent.
I won't be satisfied until democrats and deep staters are prosecuted.
Republicans always get the legal shaft, and Democrats always manage to receive a get out of jail free card.
That in itself is one of the glaring problems in the political arena.

Bit long but worth a watch....also has some stuff that ilmar (spelling ) has to say about why she is in government....and the somali president also repeating what she said......they ain't there for the usa....

With good intentions, we began allowing dual citizenships in the US for Israelis. It then went on to include another 60-some countries. We are now reaping the harvest of split alliances. The Somali effect in Minneapolis is but another example of tribalism and at best case, split fealty to multiple groups/nations/tribes.

I have often commented here about the absolute looniness of both the right and left extremes in this country. I have been puzzling over the inexplicable fixation of the farther right elements in the Trump movement with regard to the Epstein "files." For a rather disheartening explanation, Scott Greer offers an interesting perspective which ties that frustration to far a broader conspiracy theory held on the far right that the globalist world is controlled by pedophile cabal and “systemic pedophilia” is inherent to the current order - it even has a name - Critical Pedo Theory (CPT). These elite pedos are evil by nature, which is why they use space lasers to cause forest fires and wield their weather machine against red states.

Trump's team, if not actively courting these lunatics, certainly did nothing to dissuade them. He now has a real problem how to mitigate what is to them a core belief.

The truly pathetic thing to me, is how many people seem so vested in any of these internet driven fantasies.

One thing, I don't get is how those on the left are stating it is not being released because he is on "the list". If Trump was anyway associated with Epstein, I am 100% sure it would have been leaked/released during the Biden administration.

As far as the MAGA goes, I have no idea why this is such a big issue. I'd rather worry about the strength of the dollar. When I ordered my Riby 1 GBP was $1.20 now it is $1.345. Dollar has lost 14.5% in value internationally.

For perspective, my 92K GBP (with options) Rigby was going to cost me $110K, now it will cost $128K. And that is before the punitive tariffs which could be another $32K if the 25% tariff holds.

So, just in a few months, Trump has cost people importing from overseas a surcharge of 39.5%. And this surcharge is applicable to almost everything being imported from the EU and GB. Is this sustainable, I thought he was supposed to fix inflation, not add to it?

Didn’t you order your Rigby 2 years ago when Biden was in office?

I agree with you on the value of the dollar being the real focus, on the other hand look at how much the stock market has increased since he got in office.

I mean the rampant “poor me, my portfolio, the sky is falling” posts on this forum have mysteriously vanished.

So look at the bright side… yes the cost of your Rigby has gone up, but so has the value of your investments.

Yes, I ordered it back then, but paid only 25% up front. Rest is due when it is ready to ship.

From the article:

...Age gap relationship hysteria demonstrates the strength of the taboo around pedophilia. Women now call men who date younger women pedophiles, despite both parties being adults, because they know it’s the worst label one can receive. They hope it will shame men into dating women their own age.

True. I remember attending a dinner party with my last wife. At that time, we had been married for 7 years, a woman after finding out we were 20 years apart called it "Disgusting" in a very loud voice. My wife was 30 and I was 50 at the time. Both adults all throughout the relationship.

This guy worries me more than Mahndani, at least Mahndani has high profile people pushing back against him. This guy doesn’t have mush resistance at all that I’ve seen.

It actually amazes me to see Somalians being settled in MN. The weather is as extreme as one can get away from Africa. My last wife's family is from International Falls, MN, "icebox of the USA". When I went there for a family reunion I might as well have been walking around Oslo, Norway in regard to people's looks.

When I retired from the Army, I had among my offers one from then ATK in Minneapolis and one from Northrop Grumman where I would be based Northern VA. ATK was a smaller company and there was much to like. We went so far as to go look at houses during the first week of June. At every house we toured, the realtor maneuvered us quickly to show us the extraordinary things the owners had done with the basements. Next stop were the expansive heated garages - with great emphasis on the heated thing. As we left the last one, light snow flurries were blowing. It dawned on both of us why basements and heated garages were such selling points.

Upon returning home, I quickly closed on the offer from Northrop.
