Hello,

My name is Jake, glad to have the opportunity to join the boards! Been a long time haunt and soaked up lots of good information that’s been helpful over the years. Would like to step out of the shadows and contribute when possible and appropriate.

Like many out there-I love the outdoors, hunting, fishing, and all around simple living. I’m an owner and fan of Mauser rifles, Ruger rifles, and Ruger revolvers. That’s not to say I don’t have an appreciation for all types of firearms.

So here is to fair weather and following winds!

V/r

Andrew, I commented that your on 375 H&H for sale was the fair price.

Like I commented, my classic stainless has the original 24” barrel.

Did you buy yours with the barrel already cut down to 21” or did you do it (or a gunsmith)?

You might have edited your post on the PH in the Bubye. I know the PH and is a wonderful person and a fmaily man and runs a succesful business in Zim and just doesn't want the attention that the internet offers, the ugly kind.

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.
