Introduction Izak Müller

Welcome to AH Izak! Glad you found us and joined our community.
 
I have been on the site many many times as a guest, and decided today that seeing as I have all the time in the world with this Lock down, that today is the day.

I grew up on hunting stories from my father. He hunted quite extensively in the old Rhodesia, and at one time he hunted crocodiles professionally in the Sabie river. On the farm he shot plains game, one hippo and two leopards.

I have in my life owned a couple of great fire arms, some that I sold and that I can kick myself for. I have missed a couple of opportunities due to not having money and for those I lament at night at full moon. Worst one was a 505 Gibbs in 1982, as a first year student, that was offered in the STAR newspaper for R500.
Nobody would borrow me the money and sadly, it was lost to me.

I had a lovely 7x64 Musgrave that I swopped for a winch, Yea I know, I was an idiot!

Now I own a Brno mod 21 8x60S (1948) and a Brno .22.

SWAMBO is against hunting so I have read all that I could lay my hands on and watched Youtube ect on hunting. During this lock down I have decided to resume my love for hunting and will, as soon as this ends plan and execute a hunting trip in the deep bushveld. Maybe speak to one of my PH friends?

So next in line in fire arms is a 9.3x62 CZ ZKK, a 7x64 Brno and then some or another 6.5 Quicky (6,5 x68).

Shotguns, not so much but maybe a classic English gun in a case that does not break the bank to much.

Hand Guns, love my Glock Mod 21.

What else, I have a small collection of old Africa hunting books and some of the new classics as well.

Thanx for taking the time to read a little, I will endeavor to learn more and if I can contribute with the little knowledge that I have, I will do so.

Regards

Izak

Be careful of this Wolfen guy. 2 messages. Both trying to sell something. He PM'ed me trying to sell something and he PM'ed my friend on here trying to sell something. Fishy.

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.
