Good photo.
My Simson Suhl .405 WCF worked out well too, and it too was done by an experienced gun maker. It has become a favorite of mine, taking a variety of big game from hogs to red deer and Nilgai:

Nice looking rig and definitely up to the task of taking any buffalo walking.

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
