The same one that was mentioned on AH recently. I should see it at my FFL next week.


I put an order in for a few boxes of AMMO from Hendershot.

I’ll give a report and post pictures once I receive it.

Need to buy and mount a scope.

Very nice! You should never be undergunned with that one. I saw some .450 Dakota brass for sale somewhere online just recently. Stock up on brass and bullets whenever the opportunity arises even if you do not load yourself. I believe Hendershots and another of the premium ammo loaders advertised needing the customer to supply components for some cartridges not too long ago. I am very surprised at the lack of components now for some of the very popular calibers.
Good luck! Hope you enjoy the rifle!

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?
