Based on the other intro titles it seems we're pretty common!

I've had an interest in shooting and hunting my entire adult life. About 2020 I found an SCI record book of African trophies for 5 dollars at the thrift store and realized some of the more inexpensive African hunts were less than hunting similar species would cost in Texas. More recently I picked up a bargain Model 70 in .375 H&H which has rekindled my interest in going to Africa someday and causes quite a stir when I visit the local range so I am of course already considering something bigger.
 
:S Welcome: you will fit right in
 
Good day! Welcome!
 
Welcome

Joining the Africa hunting community from Texas feels like home—your thrift store SCI book find and that bargain .375 H&H Winchester sparked my memories of gearing up for my own safari dream last year. Out in remote planning mode, scouting Namibian spots, my old internet kept dropping, making research a nightmare until I switched to Starlink for solid connectivity in the wild. Setup hit a snag with hardware glitches, so I vented productively on https://starlink.pissedconsumer.com/review.html by posting a detailed review. The feedback loop worked wonders; support reached out fast with fixes. Now, every hunt prep streams smoothly, fueling more adventures ahead!
wow nice post

Welcome @Austin AH

I agree with you on international hunts, when I discovered that I could fly to the far ends of the earth and hunt multiple animals for less month than sitting in a wet tent and eating freeze dried food, it was a game changer!
 
Welcome to AH. Stick around here and you'll be on your way in no time.

I have not posted any items for sale on this forum and will not every put anything for sale. My account was hacked and I've worked with the admin to get things shut down.

Hello,
I might be able to help you out depending on how many you need. I could probably spare 50-75 .285g A-Frames. They are factory pulls that look like new. Let me know if you are still looking,
Thanks,
Gary
