Hi,
I enjoy all shooting sports and firearms. I have hunted North America but haven’t yet been to Africa.
I have a 505 Gibbs, Holland 500/465, and a 404 Jeffery as well as small bores and shotguns. I’m looking forward to hunting buffalo.
Regards,
Bill
 
Vagrouser, welcome to the AH forum! Ouch! 505 Gibbs! That makes my old shoulder hurt just reading it!:ROFLMAO:
 
Welcome from a fellow Texan! Sounds like you have some great rifles for hunting Africa. What's the make of the .404 Jeff?
 
Giday Vagrouser, and welcome to the A H forums
 
Welcome! Lots of us Texans on AH. Sounds like you have the rifles for a big game hunt in Africa. Jump in! The water's fine!
 
Welcome aboard!
 
Thanks all. I’ve actually posted the 505 and 404 in the classifieds with the plan to keep my Holland 500/465 Royal as my large bore. I’m getting ready to have rotator cuff surgery—damaged shoulders playing rugby and to be honest most of my hunting is over bird dogs and shotguns here in the Texas panhandle.
Happy to be here!

Hello Vagrouser,

Khomas Highland Hunting Safaris of Namibia, welcomes you to the greatest forum on earth.

Your 500/465 double was made specifically for heavy tropical game, including African buffalo.
If it was not made recently, it is a time machine.
I hope you can bring it to the continent and at least one of the species it was designed for.

Best Regards,
Velo Dog.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
