Hi all, I am a new safari rifle owner. A dream come true. I now have a Greener .577 express. No plans for an Africa hunt. Im a collector really. Im from Florida. I am a commercial pilot after a career in the USMC as a harrier pilot including a 3 year exchange tour with Sea Harriers in the Royal Navy...Thanks for the fine welcome.
 
Welcome aboard!

Thank you for your service sir (y)
 
Welcome to AH Thomas! Nice to have you here.
 
Hi Thomas, welcome to AH !
 
Welcome and congrats on the rifle!
 
Welcome to AH!
 
WOW! A Harrier pilot! I thought they all crashed! Just kidding! But the concepts did have a difficult time initially, so I read.
Thomas, thanks for your service and I hope you have a long one in the commercial field.
I’m telling you honestly, you really really should go to Africa!

Welcome - enjoy the site
 
Welcome to AH Thomas! Nice to have you on the posting side, looking forward to reading your posts.
 
Welcome aboard Thomas. You certainly went "all in" on your first safari rifle. Have you shot it yet, or don't you intend to shoot it? If flying "jump jets" didn't light your fire perhaps a charging DG animal might. Perhaps you should consider taking your new found toy to a place where she belongs.
 
Welcome to AH Thomas. Enjoy the forum, it's very addicting.
 
Welcome. This is a great site and I know you will enjoy it.

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?
