africa bug bit me pretty bad. Can’t wait to get back. I’ve always loved lions and have always wanted one. After seeing them in Africa, I decided a realistic lion on my sleeve will be a great addition.

I’m using a realistic tattoo artist who’s incredible. He likes references of true photos of lions and goes from there.

I’ve googled a ton. I’d love to see if y’all had any amazing lion pictures that could go on my sleeve. If I end up with yours... beer on me!
 
Sadly, no lion pictures to share yet.
 
Here are some Lion sketches from Wildlife Artist Marcello Pettineo

I saw this and thought I would show you. The look on the lion's face is what I think is cool. The extent of the tatoo is rather too much in my opinion!

This would be great on one of the side panels of a double rifle. Wonder if there would be copyright issues though. :unsure:

Whoever has done that lion has got a fantastic facial attitude for him. Superb confident arrogance backed by ability

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!

Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA
