I live in DFW, gizmo has my Duiker. Alpine taxidermy seems to do well and they cleared my trophy shipment for me but lead time is long and price isn’t special
money was concern for me when i bought mine last year. I pieced it together and spread the pain out. Buy a stock when find good deal on one. Buy a barrel when one pops up, etc. I have yet to find a single deal on QD scope mounts though...
we did our first hunt a couple years ago. We decided to use camp rifles and happy i did. Travel was easy and guide knew how to call for hold on distances since they were his rifles.
Strongly consider a good camera purchase and leave without taxidermy. The cost is outrageous to me and i know i...
Anyone in DFW with a trailer and big truck, I’d love to give you some free concrete blocks for a perfect backstop. We dump waste concrete into econo/blocks with no warranty or quality gaurantee but free
You have to come through our southern border if want easy access ;)
I am surprised it’s hard to get a hunting rifle into the country. However with Canada's continued infringement on gun ownership it’s kind of funny to complain about the US making it hard
I had planned our trip for my 30th bday (wife’s birthday is same month so..). That was 2020 and Covid ruined that. Ended up going over for first time at 32 for PG. we’ll be back for Buffalo in 2026 I believe
I’m in ft worth and evaluated multiple taxis for my first Africa hunt. I’ve had a few other things mounted and mixed reviews on results (still hanging in my house). Gizmo happened to be in town when I reached out. No regrets so far and I’m certain will have good results
Looking to add a Javelina to the wall. Any recommendations for a guide in Texas? I’m in DFW but will drive anywhere in the state. Don’t need a 5 star operation, just need javelinas.
Thanks,
Dale
I just bought my first blaser by pieces last year. I for one would appreciate a little better pricing but when I have a 30-06 and 375 in one small pelican going to Australia I’ll remember what makes it worth it
Kydex holster for Kimber 365 macro (wont fit my suppressor height sites)
Kydex holster for 43x that I don’t like way gun fits in. It fits, but not like my other holster
Stock night sites on 365 macro
Stock trigger on 365 macro
Toyota tundra. I’d plan to keep it long term you can’t beat it.
I drive a 23 Ram 2500 lease thats a work truck. We get a new one each year and every time I have bunches of recalls and weird tendencies/issues. It’s convinced me to not buy one myself. Also rides like complete garbage if aren’t...
I live in Fort Worth and need my 30-06 barrel threaded. Have read it can be tougher than a normal barrel and want it done right. Any recommendations?
Thanks

I have my grandfathers 300 savage that has killed a couple deer, Texas sheep, and a pig with me. Planned to take to Africa but don’t reload and the last few boxes of core lokt I bought shot all over the place. I need to get it to someone to work up a load and see what’s up. Damn beautiful gun.
Bushpig and a giant warthog. We spent 2 laaate nights after bush pigs and shot a couple warthogs but no walhangers. They are what make me want to go back. That will be combined with a buffalo hunt for sure though
Bought a house in September. Between that and work I havnt been able to hunt like usual. Had a yearly hunt with a vendor outside DFW and was able to shoot a decent nine point and a his girlfriend. Freezer is now full.
Have this Superlite in 30-06. Was supposed to be my “final gun” for deer and such but we all know that’s a fools errand. Picked up a Blaser so this has to go.
-stainless 30-06
-threaded barrel
-fluted bolt
-limbsaver butt pad
-DNZ scope mount
-2.5-10x Nikon monarch 3 scope
Truly is a great...
Sure it’s a long shot. Looking for:
-375 barrel and mag
-30-06 barrel and mag
- scope mounts/rings for 1” scope
- standard bolt head
Rather buy here before ordering online.
Thanks,
Dale
Going to place on gunbroker when get around to it. Be real interested in a 30-06 R8 barrel/mag, scope mounts, standard bolt head if someone wants some trade action
Have my 375 for sale. Bought from someone in Alaska who had painted the cross bolts and sling studs green to protect from rust… Stock shows use as a hunting rifle but nothing too bad and I think tells a story of its own. I have Talley QD mounts on it for 1” scope and had new butt pad put on and...
Looking to get my Duiker shoulder mounted/wall pedestal. Talked to Alpine taxidermy in Fort Worth who imported my heads for me and said $900 and about a year turn around. Any other recommendations in DFW or near by? No idea if $900 is fair or not so trying to get comparisons.
Also, show me your...
Looks great in the plaque. For some reason I just prefer the skull on drywall look. The fact the wife had me paint the kudu wall black plays a roll in this one also… a black wall in the dining room is a bold choice lol
Finally got my skulls from Africa. Was planning to screw picture hangers into the skulls and epoxying but after picking up my Kudu I started to question what works for deer may not work. This lead to looking at the simple skull hookers as I prefer the look of skull floating bare on wall so can’t...
I’ve done 3 Ram hunts in Texas. One with my nephew and he had a great time but definitely wasn’t a hunt. Other alone but used grandfathers model 99 and last year with my wife using my bow. We have our fill and won’t be doing it again unless I take a youth hunter. Now audad in west Texas is on...
Have two warthog skulls, one warthog skin. There’s a breaking point where it’s not “worth” bringing the animals back if cost more then the original hunt. Rather eat the 3k already spent than spend another 8k. Hoping that’s not the case though
