Just turned fifty years old ten days ago, and got the most beautiful birthday present ever from my companion!
I do not know how long she has been saving for this one, but I guess I am a lucky man.
Blaser R8 Selous, 416 Remington magnum, my dream....
I went to Africa hunting in April, but now have no other choice that book another hunt beofre year's end...

Happy birthday and congrats on the Blaser. It's nice to have a wife that buys you guns instead of neckties, isn't it...

Happy birthday, and congratulations for that present !
 
now you can use that rifle on a cape buffalo hunt...go get em.
 
Very nice! And yes you are now compelled to book a buffalo hunt at the minimum. However you'd be a perfect clod if you didn't take that wonderful woman with you!!
 
Congrats on the Birthday gift!
 
Your woman is a "keeper" Happy B-day.

Aha!
That's the plan, she went with me last year for elephant, even though she is not very keen on hunting... I guess close to a perfect woman, and beautiful by the way!!!
I guess I must have been good in a previous life to have such a good karma...

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
