Thanks for posting this. I'm afraid with AI, it has the potential to get worse.

Thanks for the nice write up. Sounds like a great trip.

Echoes my experience with United into/from Alberta in 1999. Haven’t flown on one of their planes since!!

Likely a hacked account!

Does the magazine hold 2 or 3 rounds? Thanks

As close to a foolproof method as is likely to exist, which I've preached ad nauseam, is to insist on a video call with the seller holding the item he's trying to sell and take a screen shot of them for future use if necessary. Don't know why there seems to be resistance to doing this. As the...

Thinking about it. I have a similar one that’s blued and originally wanted the stainless!

Fwiw, here's my perspective from someone who considered, and researched, going to Africa and have ultimately decided I'm not willing to deal with the logistics and am ok with not going there. In the end, it came down to the fact that I'm not cut out to spend 15ish hours on a flight to and from...

Thankfully, didn't actually see this but--- years ago, we had a guy in our group that was a big SOB. 6'4, 270 lbs, that we nicknamed 'Mongo'. He was in his tree stand during deer season dressed in coveralls. Mother Nature called, so being a bit lazy, he decided to drop the coveralls and...

To answer- yes, it makes a difference what version in terms of value and optical clarity. Swarobright's were an earlier version discontinued about 2010 when Swarovision was introduced. Swarovision has different lens coating and better 'edge to edge' clarity. Swarovision is still offered...

From 1987 to 2022, my only hunting rifle was a .338 Win. Mag. Used it on everything from prairie dogs to grizzly. Never failed to do the job. After that I just wanted to play with a few others for no reason other than curiosity. You made a good choice for the hunt!

These are Swarobright not Swarovision correct?

New Mexico oryx.
