Ladies & Gents - I am hoping that someone can help me with the issue of putting a scope on a Merkel 141 in 9.3x74R or a 375 H&H Mag.

I am a bit of a purist and my Heym 88b in 470 NE is not scoped. But I am buying another double rifle (because IMO you cannot beat a double while on Safari) for my wife and she needs a scope. She knows how to shoot open sights but shoots much better with a scope.

I cannot sem to find out much about scope mounts for the Merkel, or double rifles in general.

Doe anyone know what mounts to use on a Merkel?

I do not want to take the rea sight off as I would like to use this as my Buffalo Rifle as well.

I appreciae any help. I have tried searching past forums but have not found the answer.

Thanks,

C

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?
