Best Bond is dead. Sir Sean Connery!

I was 19 when The Untouchables came out. Once it was released to video I must have watched it at least a dozen times, largely for Connory’s character. Great actor. RIP
 
He was......

Good. Very Good!
 
My fav Bond movie was the 2nd one, From Russia with Love, a true spy classic without too much gadgetry. Robert Shaw as the villain Red Grant was quite scary. The fight inside the train is a classic.
I just watched him the other day in The Wind and the Lion which is excellent as is the Molly McGuires, The Man Who Would be King and others.
He was very funny in the Indy movie as well, The Last Crusade.
 
Don’t forget “League of Extraordinary Gentlemen”. Kind of a weird movie, but hey, it’s Connery as Quatermain...African PH. Who better?

He will be missed.
 
Until I rewatched “The Longest Day” about a week ago, I didn’t know he was in that.
He was very good and will be missed.
 
Never saw him in a role that he did not nail! Agreed. Best Bond ever!
 
A great actor. He MADE the Bond character. My favorite role he was in was in The Hunt for Red October.
90 yrs is a great run. RIP Sir Connery.

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
