It sounds like you may not be familiar with firearms so I would suggest taking it to a local gunshop to get some information on the gun as a first step

Can you provide us with:
Photos of the firearm?
Manufacturer's name?
Caliber?
Model?
The above information is generally located on top of the barrel.

Scope looks like a Burris (Fullfield maybe?). The Rifle may be a Browning ABolt? It appears to have that A-bolt "squashed" bolt handle. Potentially in a different laminate stock... (Boyd's?)

Nevermind. Savage Axis in a boyds laminate stock. Magazine and bolt release seem to be identical to the Axis. If it is, unfortunately, it's not going to be terribly valuable, but a good starter rifle for someone!

Appears to be stainless?

Most gun shops will take it in on consignment. They will handle everything for you for a small percentage of what they sell it for.

If by chance this rifle is in fact in RSA. He will need to proceed very carefully since the rifle may be unllicensed.
I also see that he is a nee member.

I know nothing about Zambia possession and license issues. I assume they run along the lines of Zimbabwe.
If the firearm does not have a license it is worthless. I have had to walk away from some fantastic firearms do to the fact the owner had no license.

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Remember I will be at the ISE show in Denver Colorado for 8-12 January, and after the show I will be available for meetings anywhere in the USA I will traveling around to meet with old and new clients, let me know and we will set up a meeting!
