New member introduction

Welcome to AH Jp 1001! Glad you found us and joined our community.
 
Hallo folks,

What a pleasure to stumble upon this forum, and what a privilege to be able to join. So much knowledge and wisdom at the touch of one's fingertips.

I look forward to learning and dare I say it -contributing a bit here and there if I could add value.

I grew up hunting on our family farm, where I still live. I took my first antelope when I was 8 years old with my father's BSA 30-06 and have been in love with Africa, hunting and firearms since.

I have the pleasure of spending the majority of my free time in the African veldt and enjoy every second of it.
I also hold dedicated hunting and sport shooter status in South Africa and have a particular fondness for the .30 caliber range of firearms. Besides firearms I have a keen interest in the Rhodesian Ridgeback hound, 5 of which hold me company on my walks on the farm.

I look forward to being a part of this forum, and if I may be so bold , I thank you all in advance for having me.

I wish you a most sincere welcome.
 
Welcome to AH! Enjoy the site.

Here's the target for the NorthForks - 25yds off a bag, iron sights. Hunting leopards over dogs the range won't be more than that.

Flew in an airshow in Smyrna years ago, beautiful country.

Best regards,

Franco
