The most expensive pair of cufflinks you've ever bought

I enjoyed your chat with Marc on the podcast.

Lucky man, I visited Rigby over Thanksgiving and was quoted 5 years for the Shikari.

100% the most expensive pair of cufflinks. I wore them New Year's Eve and had the very same thought.

Glad you enjoyed the podcast.

Anyone have pics to share of their new Shikari?

Folks how does the Shikari fair for durability and strength with the Heym 89b?

Kevin, here is my sincere reply to your question. I saved and bought a Blaser R8 pro as I am left handed. I LOVE a fantastic grade of wood stock, but I hunt and want to hunt as much as I can afford. I am not the target audience for that rifle. I prefer my switch barrel grunt gun. I just want to hunt, meet people and have experiences within my budget.

You should bought an NEF Handi Rifle... you could have hunted even more.

I ordered and received my double rifle years ago so I am out of the loop on the purchasing process.

Do the current makers do initial fitting upon order and then give you the opportunity to shoot the rifle in the white and make adjustments to gun fit,point of aim, balance etc?

Give it 50 or so years and am sure you will get some correct feedback.....
