I have most of these books and bought another this week from him.
His prices are well below the market value.

Thank you for that. I spent many years as a manufacturers agent in the shooting sports industry and hunted the world. I like the camaraderie of this site and wanted to share some of my treasures. The money is only symbolic. I have much more to come including some incredible custom rifles that guys on here would appreciate but it's hard to pull the trigger just yet (pun intended). Post partum depression, you know. It's much easier parting with my books and handloading components for now.
 
I’ll take #4
I'm sorry but this one was sold at 1153 this morning by PM. I'm not too good at this. I'm a hunter, not a merchant so please accept my apology for not posting a sold note on the listing. All are sold but I am listing more titles at same equivalent pricing. Please forgive me, I know how now.

Hello! I saw your post from last year about a missing crate from your hunt in Moz. I am curious how that all turned out? We (my fiancé and I) also hunted in Moz in 2024 and the trophies are being shipped with Hunters Services Limitada. We have some concerns on whether we will get the trophies home or not. May I ask who you hunted with?
