Absolutely beautiful rifle. I am very happy for you! (y):)
 
Congratulations!
 
@matt85 great to see you have finally sorted what you have wanted for a long time (y) whats the delivery date? and shame you not coming to sci for a couple or more :D Beer Bottle:

@spike.t i will miss our long nights of heavy drinking. im sure our paths will cross again and maybe ill even find myself hanging out with you in Zambia some day.

@zephyr no fixed delivery date at the moment but im hoping for July or August. the barrels will be roughly 26" which is going to be the standard for the model 89.

Beautiful Case Hardening,congratulations
 
Beautiful Case Hardening,congratulations

my rifle will not have the case hardening, I decided that spending extra on this feature wasn't worth its lack of durability.

Congrats Matt!

It was fun looking at doubles with you and just listening to you talk to both the Heym and VC guys.

The VC double in 600 NE I handled at the DSC show was one of the most perfectly balanced rifles ive ever seen and felt MUCH lighter then it actually was (cant even remember the weight).

I remember. It was 16 lbs, and I couldn't believe how light it felt.

it was great meeting you at DSC and I appreciated you keeping me company at the show.

Congrats Matt. Hope she serves you well.

thank you, I wanted to say I also appreciated you hanging out with me at the show. I hope that new fancy gear treats you well and bag your clients some fantastic game.

thank you, how is that 470 treating you? seeing as your still posting I'm guessing its stopped a few more angry buffalo cows?

Hahaha, yes matt its still stopping everything up to date and keeping me alive
 
Nothing like pulling the 2 triggers on a double and smelling the gun powder in the air
 
I hope your "rifle luck" is much better than it has been during the last couple of years. If this new one turns out to be a lemon, you should probably find a new hobby/sport!

Can just hear @matt85 .... "I had a problem with the yarn. The dye faded quickly. I don't recommend it. "

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

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?
