I've written here that my hunting partner for my Africa hunts is my father. He always dreamed of going to Africa and spoke of it highly in my youth and I was ecstatic to take him these past 3 trips. I'm 38 now and planning our 4th trip over now. I've always know my father is a Vietnam...

Greetings all. Was not intending to sell this one, but I have finally ordered a Blaser R8 (@BeeMaa would be proud ;)) and need to help offset it. Ruger Redhawk 44 magnum with 7.5" barrel, stainless. I purchased this from the original owner who bought it new from Gander Mountain in the 90s...

Clearing out some stuff. 2 Galco King Tuk holsters for a Springfield Xd and Xdm 9/40/45. Galco fit # 440. Used very little but has wear, one still has one tag intact. Would love to sell and ship both together for $40 delivered. Thanks!

Few things lying around that came from previous places of employment that need to go. 2 Heavy Hauler braider paranoid slings. Both new, one still in packaging one not. With swivels, 42" length, brown & tan colored. $25 shipped each Carvel Hall reproduction Bowie collectors item on...

Rifle came in on trade and I disassembled it as barrel was not original nor was the stock. Long action, originally chambered in 30-06 and retains same bolt face. Guessing 1965-67 based on 6 digit serial number 3XXXXX. Early style saftey with bolt lock. Early trigger (non 40X with adjustment...

Evening ladies and gents. Few items I'm not using that I'd like to go to good homes. Prices shipped CONUS. Blaser R8 QD mount 1"- used, but like new. $225 shipped Speed Feed synthetic stock for Remington 1100. New Old Stock. $50 shipped Hogue Ruge4 Mini 14/30 Ranch rifles stock...

For my hunt this year, I wanted to get a dedicated belt with 2 ammo slides, one for soft and one for solids. My father has had an ELS culling belt for about 5 years and it's quite nice though rather pricey now. I was hoping to find something about as nice, but hopefully quite a bit less in...

The Planning. After 2 hunts to RSA in 2016 and 2018, my father and I were ready to get back. We had booked a Buffalo hunt back to RSA for May of 2020, but like so many other members, Covid had other plans. We rebooked for 2021, but had to cancel again. At that point, I dreaded having to...

A billed passed the Illinois Senate tonight that was slightly modified from a bill the IL house passed a few days ago. They are calling it an "assault weapons ban", however, it is simply an attack on the 2nd amendment. IL pro gun groups are poised to file litigation and injunctions, but below...

Have a 7400 from the same lot of my brother in law as my previous two sales. I was going to keep and rebore this to 35 whelen for a dedicated "hog" fun gun, but the hunt fund needs it more. This rifle does have a crack near the tip of the forend shown in photos. I was going to swap it for a...

After a lot of research, info overload, and help from AH folks, I just sent the deposit to hunt with @NYAMAZANA SAFARIS in the Save for Buffalo and more next August. Had great communication from Wayne as to be expected from the great reviews from members here. Working with Jennifer @TRAVEL...

Not mine, but a fair deal to be had as of 11:30am CST 10/18.

I'm ready to make the jump. I'm looking for the best deal on an R8. Wanting to stay sub $4k. This really puts me in the professional stock, but do also want the removable trigger group. Caliber choice is ideally a 300 Win, but open as I could sell the barrel off and purchase the 300. Really...

I know they are rare and people dont want to give them up, but Im looking to get some of the old Speer African Tungsten solids in .375. No other solids needed, just seeing if anyone has some of these old ones they no longer need. Thanks!

Hello AH friends, Looking at booking a hunt in either Save in Zim or Coutada 9 in Moz. I'm after Buff with any potential PG to add as it comes up. My father is looking for a Crocodile and possible nice Sable. This has steered me to lean toward Coutada, but I have seen many great reports and...

Found this and used it on a whitetail Euro and figured I try it on some of my PG. Worked well, so I grabbed one for an Impala. Simple and works really well with a clean and small footprint. Worked on a warthog too, but could only hang straight. You can change the angle on the Impala a little...

Have 3 boxes of B257100TTSX 257 Weatherby 100 grain TTSX I'm looking to sell. 2 boxes are still sealed, 3rd opened just to inspect. Been sitting on my shelf without a rifle to send them thru. Selling as a group, $170 shipped to the lower 48 for the trio. Can take zelle, venmo, PP (f&f), or a...

Another rifle from the brother-in-law. This one he has taken in the field and hunted WI a few seasons. I believe this is the 1988 release Remington 700 in 35 Whelen. Has a older Leupold 2-7 on it, iron sights removed. Surface rust is present on the bolt know. This was his working rifle, so...

Selling a few rifles for my brother-in-law. This one is a never fired after the factory Mark V in 7mm Remington. Includes a Leupold 4.5-14 w/ adjustable objective (great scopes). Near new, but has a few marks on the stock from his safe I presume. Included is original paperwork and test...

Seems like there quite a bit of interest on these right now. I purchased mine on Electronics bay a few years ago and looks like there are at least two new in the wrapper for $120 and $125 (make an offer). Snag one while you can. Of course, there are the crazy prices listed as well on some... o_O

I know some might think this sacrilegious, but I tend to do the odd projects. Some background... I recently got bit by the bug to do a short action switch barrel system. I have always been fond of the wildcat WSMs. I was looking at doing a 375WSM with a 6.5WSM switch barrel. I communicated...

Looking to sell my Sabatti EDL in 470 Nitro Express. Rifle is a 2019 build, so not a Cabela's gun, ie no ground muzzles. Ive had this rifle for about 2+ years and have enjoyed it. It was my first venture into the DR world. As I have mentioned here before, I truly am one of the odd ones and...

Here is a fun one. Remington Model 8 in 35 Remington (take down) with a Marbles rear sight. Who doesn't love the "Great Model 8"? This rifle was built in June of 1931. Stock has not been cut down and has the original buttplate. Comes with the Marbles rear sight, barrel rear sight removed...

Looks like the first off the line is the 1895 SBL in, of course, 45-70. Looking forward to Marlin's NC plant and their expected return to the old JM quality. https://www.marlinfirearms.com/s/news-2021-12-20/

Little torn on letting this one go, but I don't have a rifle that needs it and not sure when the next rifle will come along for it, so I will offer it up to the AH members. Here is a used but in like new condition Nikon Monarch African 1-4x20mm Scope with German #4 reticle. Optics are perfect...

Cleaning up some not needed items. 3 older Beretta 92 9mm 10 rd mags, used but not abused. $35 shipped conus Ruger Mini 14 post 180 Higue overloaded stock in Ghille Green. Like new, but box has been moved a few times and shows wear. Stock itself is like new. Shipping may be pricier on...

Having seen the posts on @BeeMaa plans for a pheasant trip, it made me want to jump in for a new thread on who will be and has been out for birds this 21 season. I've recently relocated back to the north, and with it, more days in the field with the pup. Not sure if I'll get any wild hunts...

New owners taking a big and much needed step. The union negotiations in NY may have soured them a little too much. I'm guessing they eventually leave NY completely soon enough. Hopefully the brings some life back to the brand...

Hi guys, Looking for a set of the old pachmayr flush sling swivels. Dont need the full mount kit, rather just 2 of the swivels. Anyone have a set they arent using and want to part with? Image below for reference

Listing a great lever action with lots of goodies. Original Marlin 1895M in 450 Marlin with 18.5" ported barrel. Comes with a now discontinued Nikon Monarch 3 1-4x20 with German #4 reticle. Scope is mounted in a set of Leupold QD lever rings & bases. Ive had the rifle for over 15 years and...

Saw that United has a non stop to JNB now from EWR. Anyone fly with them over to SA yet? Any issues with the firearms checks? Have a lot of United miles...

Hi guys, Looking to pick up 1 or 2 original brass remington model 8 stripper clips. These things have gotten pricey and hard to find. Looking for the models marked "35 CAL" with the 3 bumps on the side. If any member has 1 or 2 sitting in a drawer, let me know. Id pay a fair price for them...

Came across this video from Leverguns50. I enjoy his videos as I am a lever gun fan. Incredible to see these new rifles loaded to these levels...especially with 8 rounds in the tube, ha! I know there is a member here @fsrmg1 that had one of these 1886 rifles made in 50-110, hows the shooting...

AH members and enablers...it is done. First double rifle is paid for and being shipped after Christmas. Many of you here provided the knowledge and experience needed for this purchase and I am very grateful for the information. I always kept an eye out looking for the deal and was patient. A...

Not really for African hunting unless you're into LR, but up for sale is a Leupold Mark 4 6.5020x50mm LR/T scope that the custom shop did a custom Kryptek anodizing. This was a sample presented to the Leupold buyer at a previous company whom is letting it go. No Box, but never used. Leupold...

Hello all, Another offering from my colleague down sizing. Here is a Leupold Mark 6 1-6x20mm illuminated TMR-D scope w/ M6C1 and first focal plane reticle. Sku 115045. Scope is new and never mounted in original box and all documents and accessories. Not everyone is a fan of FF scopes as its...

Hello all. Have a former colleague that is selling off some of his not needed/used items. First is a Leupold model 113769 VXR Patrol 1.25-4x20mm scope is matte finish and SPR Firedot reticle. Would work great on a truck/bush gun and a DG setup as well. about 4" of eye relief on 1x and 3.75"...

Well, a new project needs funding, so I'm selling my unfired S&W shield 45acp with night sights in the box. Pistol has not been fired other than at the factory. Bought to use in one of the cars, but never took it out of the box. Came from the shop with 2 7rd mags. One flush and the other...

Always a great feeling to get the call. Michael at Coppersmith gave me a ring and said my crate was cleared thru and at their warehouse in Elk Grove, IL. Coppersmith has always been so easy to communicate with and truly a pleasure working with them. I especially loved when he said "Its...

Have a never fired Ruger GP100 357 for sale. 4" barrel with the rubber grip with rosewood inserts. I believe this revolver is a early manufacture, possibly late 80s-early 90s. Manual is dated 1989. I am the second owner, but I purchased this and a newer 3" from my friend at the same time. I...

I've seen a few email articles come across of this lately. I'm not at SHOT this year to get some face time with umarex, but I'm just a little torn on their marketing objective. They are showcasing this rifle as a capable buffalo rifle, but saying it's not intended nor recommended for it. I...

Hey guys, Stumbled into a deal I couldn't pass up hoping it would work, but I'm a tad too big for the culling belt, so I'm going to sell the grouping. These are all original Holland Sports leather items made in the US. Holland Sports became Holland Brothers after Holland & Holland "asked"...

My father has decided to sell his Mark X 458 Win mag. He picked up both a 375H&H and the 458 about the same time and is settled that he is happy with the 375 and this sale will help with the next Africa fund. I'd love to keep it, but a double is in my future within the next 3 months. So, I'm...

Hi folks, Its been a while since I've been able to post here. An opportunity arose to relocate to North Carolina from Illinois and I was more than eager to accept it. Couldn't be happier with the decision but with the move comes the headache of packing all our belongings and gear away until...

Gentleman & Ladies, Looking to see what a loaded and a made up/dummy 4 Bore cartridges are going for these days if they should pop up. I know manufacturer will influence as well, so maybe a wide spectrum sweep of the low and high price for a single cartridge. Thanks!

Hi guys, Looking to see if anyone has loaded the 350 grain TTSX in the 416 Rigby. I know some guys have used the 300, 350, and 400 gr. TSX and Barnes evens offers the 400 grain TSX load as a stand alone loaded cartridge. If anyone here has loaded the 350 TTSX, I'd be curious if you could...

"We will continue and make a booking for your Consignment on the first available flight. I will send your flight details shortly to you as well as to Coppersmith." I'm hoping just under 2 weeks from now I'll be hanging and displaying the taxidermy work from my first South African hunt...

Gentleman (and ladies), I'm hankering for a new project and after seeing a few images and various posts on the desired outcome, I decided to venture down the road of a BLR takedown in 375 Ruger. I know its lighter weight, but I've never been one to turn away from recoil and quite frankly have...

HI Guys, I apologize if I had missed it, but I did try searching...but am possibly a little ignorant to which terms to use to narrow it down. I'm interested in finding outfitters in South Africa that have access to free range hunting concessions that also have the ability to do a night or two...
