I would like to throw this question out to the members of the forum with the hope that someone may be able to help. I have a 416 Ruger Hawkeye Alaskan and have found that it shoot about 2" low with the existing open sights. I am looking for a new lower front bead or higher reat leaf. From my search of the internet it appears that my best bet will be to replace the rear leaf as I cannot find a front bead that is lower then the one I have. Does anyone know who may make a replacement rear leaf to suit my rifle?

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
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
