Rick from Houston Texas and it is a pleasure to meet you all. I have been looking thru the forums the past few weeks and have really enjoyed the hunt reports, humor pages and Safari offers. I have hunted mostly Texas Hill Country/South Texas but also Colorado Mule Deer, Montana Elk and others. I've also done some spearfishing but this is the wrong site for that. :) I recently returned from my second safari to Africa - Elephant Hunt in Botswana. We really had a great time and I caught the elephant and big bore fever. I shoot lefty and I'm in search of a 416 Rigby or 458 Lott left handed. All leads are appreciated! This is a great site and I appreciate all the incredible knowledge and experience provided!
 
Welcome Rick! and Congratulations on your Botswana hunt. Lots of Texans on here.
Good luck on the left handed 416 Rigby. I'm not positive, but I think John Rigby & Co. offers its Big Game rifle in left hand, but it's a special order and not cheap. I have the right hand Big Game 416 Rigby and just returned from a buffalo and plains game hunt in Limpopo province SA, on the border with Botswana.
 
Welcome from fellow Texan. I’m just south of you a ways in El Campo. Will keep look out for you on a Lefty
 
Rick, welcome to the AH forum! Since you enjoy reading the reports, how about writing us one on your Botswana elephant hunt? I for one would enjoy it for sure!

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
Remember I will be at the ISE show in Denver Colorado for 8-12 January, and after the show I will be available for meetings anywhere in the USA I will traveling around to meet with old and new clients, let me know and we will set up a meeting!
