Shawn at Gracy
Long story short. I was seriously incapacitated 2 years ago while on a hunt with clients. We have a private farm in SA. I basically couldn’t walk. Wife was beside herself, she called them, they babysat me back to the US. Amazing customer service! Bruce Mdluli treated me like...
My Pre 64 Winchester M 70 loves the 200gr ELD.......that big black dot is 3 rounds at 300YDS on this 8 inch gong. I love my rifle. 67.5 grains of 4831.

Hi guys, like it says...i took this Remington 700 in 8mm Rem Mag in and it needs a home. Has a Nikon fixed 4 mounted on it and it has a big bag of brass and new Hornady dies with it! (The pen is to give you an idea of the amount of brass)
$695.00 and you pay the actual shipping. I can send...
Kudu, Gemsbok or Beast, warthog, impala, ??? Culls or whatever, just going!!!!!Heck sold off most of my gun collection...STILL don't care. You can only shoot one at a time anyway! Ferdi is a great guy and we're leaving things flexible as possible. Still can't afford the big stuff, but...
Well.....headed out for SA in 9 days. Taking my best buddy for his first trip! A week of sightseeing and a week with Ferdi. I'll post pics when we're back.
Man I love Africa!
Speaking professionally, with all of the above work completed, Brick is correct on the next step. One of the most difficult ponds I have had to dive into is operator error. There are rifles that some of us shoot well and others do not. Is it a "hogback" stock or a straight one? I shoot the...
I bought one of these. Shopped it around and found it in orange cheap. Locks tight, waterproof, reasonably priced.

Winchester. The new FN built rifle is one of the most "out of the box" accurate rifles I have seen in recent memory. CRF, good trigger, good customer service.
I have been logging customer experiences on this rifle for about 5 years now. I recommend it.
The Browning....light weight, light...
I hunt culls. It's really the only thing I can afford to hunt. Can't afford trophy fees or heads to mount. The air fare and trip costs take years for me to save up. Not complaining in any way here. I am grateful for the opportunity to hunt Africa and for the many friends I have acquired there...
NRA/ILA has had a blurb/press release that has been going out on FB. Every time the thing pops up o my page I make a comment about where the info came from and how it can effect a gun owner. Lots of guys saying "who cares, I don't go out of the US" they just don't get it...even when you jog...
Just got off the phone with Customs in Tucson. Heading over in a few months with a buddy. They say they haven't heard a word about needing an ITN number. Sounded ridiculous to them. Said they would check on it.
Okay, I'm just a poorly educated old gunsmith, but enough is enough. Let's get organized, if we ain't already. I got rope (just kiddin' sort of)
Knowing what I know of the guys that hunt overseas, most are well educated and of reasonable means. We , through all of the already named...
Does anybody get this? I've been in the gun business 36 years. My Dad about 60....more bull crap.....more control...I just get sadder for my children. Solves nothing and puts another bureaucrat into our lives. Some other mutt on the government cheese. Rant over :)
New set of Talley QD rings matte finish...for a CZ 550 / Brno ZKK 602. I buy them wholesale for my shop so I'll let them go for less than that......$85.00 mailed USPS. Went with a 1 inch Leupold so never used them. Just passing along a bargain to the board.
I asked the owner if he wanted to trade for the hunt, (it's his personal rifle) and he said he just needs the cash for another project...sorry. The rifle is now without the scope, sold that. He says he will take $900 plus shipping for it. I will take all offers to him....cheers mates!
Sorry I missed you guys, Jerome. Arizona Dave brought my regards. If you're counting I "need" 2 hats and "want" 4. Let me know when they're ready. Cheers and warmest regards, Bill
Hey guys! Sorry I haven't been around much. Just real busy moving to Arizona Dave's area, new shop, wife in and out (healthy) of the hospital. Just been really busy. I've got a #1 Tropical 458 with a Vortex Crossfire 1.5 x 4 x 32 scope. Rifle has a few nicks and light use, but in excellent...
Hi Jerome & the rest of you guys! been extremely busy in the shop so not much time for the web. Any word on AH caps or did I miss something....
Cheers all....Bill
First "good" car.......1964 Chevy ElCamino ( Gosh I loved that car.)
First gun I ever bought.....I grew up in a gun shop. Old man wouldn't let us have a deal on ANYTHING. So I went down to the sporting goods retailer on the corner and bought my first from the other guy!! :LOL: Springfield pump...
I had a gift from a satisfied customer last week.....an Aimpoint 1x4 30mm. I put in some Talley rings and as soon as I get over this bloody cold I'll go give it a try.
The law is wrong. Doesn't matter what we, as the minority, think. As far as the general public is concerned, the PC crowd is...
I have used them all. Depending on WHO is doing the work, every gunsmith has his preferences, contour, availability, quality, material. MY PERSONAL CHOICE...Douglas, Shilen, Hart. In that order, based upon everything in the mix.
