Weirdo request... I am looking for a Sauer 404 Stutzen Select in 9.3x62mm. They are no longer in production but I would love to have one... I have spoken to a sizable Sauer dealer to no avail. Leads appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Excellent choices. I almost ordered a Sauer 404 stutzen before going with the Steyr SM12 in 9.3x62. I believe you could/can order Sauer 404s through New England Custom Gun, but based on what you said it sounds like they discontinued the stutzen (that would be a shame).

I ordered the Steyr SM12 through JD Outfitters in Oklahoma. The owner (Jerry) makes pretty regular orders to a number of custom shops, including Steyr and Sako. I'd reach out to him and see what he can do.

I've been very pleased with the rifle. No plans to sell it at the present.

Does this rifle have upgraded wood?
 
The Styer or Sauer would be great choices. I would be proud to own either.
 
@etsonaut were you able to order in 9.3X62?..........could you upgrade wood?......FWB
 
Yes sir. I did place an order. As for the wood upgrade, as Jerry explained to me, you can’t choose the actual wood but you can get a higher grade. He will provide that opportunity to me as the order gets further along.
 
That Steyr is TOP SHELF! Beautiful rifle. Back to couch with covid!
 
The SM-12 Steyr starts around $4500. I think the CL II model with the full stock is a few hundred less.
It's amazing how much the retail has increased in the last 2-3 years. I believe non-upgraded CLIIs were ~$2,700-2,800 and SM12s ~$3,200-3,300 in 2021.

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

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?
