NAMIBIA: Off To Namibia

Congrats Charlie, the photo plaque looks great! I just received my CITIES import permit this week, but everyone in Namibia, including my shipping agent, is "on holiday" until January 9. Already have the Namibian export cert, so they should be able to ship when they get back to work. My taxidermist in Iowa is an SCI measures, so I can only hope my cat scores anywhere close to the monster you took! Mike from Lacona, Iowa.

The pictures above are the taxidermy studio of Jim Guist, Totally Awesome Taxidermy, Billings Missouri the day my friend David and I picked up the trophy. And the cat in the U-Haul trailer.

I haven’t been able to post pictures to the site in over a year and we couldn’t figure out why. Well I bought a new IPAD and now I can load pictures. Go figure!
 
@CAustin,

That’s an awesome mount of a GREAT cat and a wonderful way to remember your hunt. Thanks for sharing.

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
