Any evidence that old school safari rifles were sporting double set triggers before WW1 or was this a later import from Europe? (On bolt actions)
 
They were sporting double triggers , prior to the 1st world war . I have documentation ... If you desire to see them .
 
Khan - would love to see. Do you know how widespread use was? I'm assuming it was mainly for plains animals?
Yes . Rifles with double set triggers are a suicidal set up for the hunting of dangerous game . I am sending you a private message , with the documents.

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)
