Some time (a long time actually) ago I posted a hunt report about a wonderful hunt to Benin. https://www.africahunting.com/threa...-with-atacora-safaris-christophe-morio.37064/
I reported that my custom made .300 Win Mag, made by Ralf Martini (Martini Gunmakers), had somehow been broken in half in transit.
Pictures of that can be found under "Media."

PARA45 asked recently if there was a status update on the rifle, and indeed there is. Pictures of the rifle, restocked, are below. Ralf Martini repaired it and we managed to bring it home a while back. The close-up shot evidences a little of the celebration which its return occasioned.
Its first real test in action will be Mozambique in September. Before that, though, I'm taking it to the FTW Ranch in late January for some shooting practice (which Tim Fallon said I needed after our trip to Liberia last May!) and, who knows, it may get a hunt in while there!
