Nope! But it looks like something you would hang on a door!

Wow a blast from the past. I recall my parents having something like that when I was really young. It hung on the basement wall I think. I think it had more horse type imagery. I wonder where that thing is.

Isn't that a cinch strap from a saddle? C'mon, Texans!?!

Maybe a saddle strap.... decorative breast strap....for horse. Or maybe just something a rich dad beat his kids ass with. I just got a leather belt or a 1x4 w/grip.

Yes, they're horse brasses. Used to decorate shire horse harnesses in the UK.
They were quite popular a couple of hundred years ago and quite often can be seen decorating the interior of old country cottages and ye olde English public houses.
Originals are collectors items but as with most things, the repro market has made them readily available to those who want an olde worlde feel to their residence.

Hello,
Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.
Thank you for your time,
Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
