Guys:

I just got my first mount back from S Africa. A Springbok.

I opened the crate to find the horns are cut off.

What is up with that? I have an email into the taxidermist and outfitter with no response.

Is this normal? Is there a rule that I don't know about?

I suppose I can get some faux horns

Thoughts?
 
Glad you found them!
 
I have never had my springbuck horns shipped off on all 6 of them. Always on and ready to hang. I am glad they were inn the crate though.
 
10 years from now you can look back and laugh about it. :)
 
I am sure there was a moment of fear and panic. Lol :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
 
LOL...I can just see your face on that one. Glad they were there.

When I got my first crate back from SA I had a hornless gemsbok and I panicked for a few, same thing they were wrapped up in the bottom
 
Glad you found them, that could have been a very bad situation to be in....

I have an unfired T rex 577 if anyone is interested in acquiring it . Absolutely spotless, flawless and well kept . It's rare as it gets . Mouth watering ? Let me know if you feel like making an offer .

I need to know if this is legit. Photo with today's paper would do it.

Thanks

I just saw Budsgunshop.com has both the guide gun and the African for $1150. FWIW - I bought both and decided to use the Guide gun - I restocked it in a Bell and Carlson stock and I added the Alaska arms floor plate to add a round. I wanted the shorter barrel as I will use a suppressor. I wont go lower than $1100, but I will ship it and no sales tax.

Let me know if you are interested
