Hi all, I am a new safari rifle owner. A dream come true. I now have a Greener .577 express. No plans for an Africa hunt. Im a collector really. Im from Florida. I am a commercial pilot after a career in the USMC as a harrier pilot including a 3 year exchange tour with Sea Harriers in the Royal Navy...Thanks for the fine welcome.
 
Welcome aboard!

Thank you for your service sir (y)
 
Welcome to AH Thomas! Nice to have you here.
 
Hi Thomas, welcome to AH !
 
Welcome and congrats on the rifle!
 
Welcome to AH!
 
WOW! A Harrier pilot! I thought they all crashed! Just kidding! But the concepts did have a difficult time initially, so I read.
Thomas, thanks for your service and I hope you have a long one in the commercial field.
I’m telling you honestly, you really really should go to Africa!

Welcome - enjoy the site
 
Welcome to AH Thomas! Nice to have you on the posting side, looking forward to reading your posts.
 
Welcome aboard Thomas. You certainly went "all in" on your first safari rifle. Have you shot it yet, or don't you intend to shoot it? If flying "jump jets" didn't light your fire perhaps a charging DG animal might. Perhaps you should consider taking your new found toy to a place where she belongs.
 
Welcome to AH Thomas. Enjoy the forum, it's very addicting.
 
Welcome. This is a great site and I know you will enjoy it.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris
