You will have to search for the title on YouTube but this was a fun watch-just what the doctor ordered to soothe your africa addiction-if you dream of the selous at least!
Hope he didn't shoot this PH.
He did not shoot the ph THIS time-BUT I was frequently surprised at how many muzzles are pointed at other people or hands over the muzzle for pictures etc. I’m sure the guns were unloaded or whatever but terrible example! There was some other stuff as well but the daytime film of lions and leopard etc and the eland with the huge neck running down the road was very cool.
The padding also possibly helps prevent rust. I had a PH who wouldn’t touch his double without gloves and that was his reason. It was from early 1900s.That was one thing that was interesting to me-one if the ph’s had padding taped onto his barrel to make it more comfortable to carry. I assumed he is usually in the front where it makes some sense but it still caught my attention
