Tag Safari gaiters are great, I prefer the cloth ones! Their Safari shirts are top notch. Boots should have soft soles and are quiet! No water proof liner period , they make the boot too hot anddo t breathe well Make sure lots are well broke in! I usually take 2 pair and alternate Sun screen...

Emails by a polished CEO in the middle of a collapsing business are only words til proven otherwise. What ATL did to exhibitors and members will take a near miracle to overcome! Makes me very sad!

I will never live in NY and have for years made every effort to avoid ever going there! This is where crazies and lunatics migrate and those who are "normal" don't seam to be sane enough to leave and soon will be out numbered!

Gin makes my joints hurt like it takes all the lube out! and so I'm a Bourbon drinker. In Africa usually means bring my own or drink what ever scotch or Irish they have! Some of the local beers cold work too and most of the pre-covid dry red wines from Africa are frankly very good, so a single...

There are a lot of factors involved in shooting a giraffe. The first one I shot was a large mature Bull, who had an attitude and it already hurt a couple of locals on a bicycle the day before and was pretty much beating up every female in the herd and it chased off the only other bulls in the...

My western Kansas farm ground will raise wheat and milo and some dry land corn when the water is gone or more likely taken from us! My land just across the border, The State of Colorado has already started the process of stealing our irrigation water so the liberal communists who have invaded...

Give us an update on what Hornady has to say!

20" barrels??? Looks more like 30"

Welcome aboard!

As much of a shit show and board member reactions to the exhibitors I think I'm moving on also. Sorry to see what such a great organization it was and the potential it had be taken down so easily!

OMG.......... pH 1.5 That sludge pit even for copper slag before the tailing pit shows they had no intent to manage it! Yet they had powdered lime to just dump in the river! Where are all the greenies that worry about us shooting lead containing bullets.

A pH of 4 that far down river, OMG this river will likely not recover in the life time of the youngest person to read this post! The world needs to burn China back to the Stone Age! The USA should have started 40yrs ago regretting the day Richard Nixon and his communist secretary of state...

Whats been your experience in Uganda???

"Grey Market" that is BS I purchased binoculars and a big spotting scope in Austria at the factory store almost 40yrs ago. My binoculars have hunted the world, after years of use I sent them to Swarovski and in about 2mo they sent them back just like new with a very nice letter. They never...

I’ve handled this gun and it is sweet Great seller and more than fair price for a really nice custom!

Mauser 98 or Mod 70 Winchester CFR. I have a Lexus R8 that is a beautiful gun level VIII wood and engraving with 3 barrels (375,300,6,5) very accurate took to Africa on extended Safari took 2 buffalo and 13 plains game (buffs eland & waterbuck were taken with 470NE Heym). Won’t likely use...

I would avoid Germany the system there is unt friendly to guns. I have used Ethiopian airlines several times and it’s been very effective and efficient, the gun check that so many have complained about is actually very seamless compared to Joberg or Harare or Mozambique! I’ve flown Ethiopian...

As I've said to Steve Hornady several times “the 6.5 PRC is what the Creedmoor should have been” Only value in the 6.5 Creedmoor was to allow me to have brass to wildcat to a 22 Creedmoor with an 8” twist to shoot 75+grain bullets which is fun but has become mainstream as a factory cartridge...

I know them well. Guy is great PH haven’t hunted with him personally but been around him a lot. You can’t go wrong with him as a PH.

I grew up in NW Kansas Welcome to one of the greatest websites there is!

Qatar or Ethiopian in business class

4 years ago used the PH’s CZ in 22hornet and 45 GR soft point PPU ammo to take oribi, common Diker, klipspringer, and a Jackel all one shot kills 25-200y. The CZ is not as nice as the 3 Ruger Hornets I have but very accurate. The clip sucks in comparison to Rugers.With the 3x9 Zeiss and PPU...

Got a call early this am from the hunting operation to let me know this occurred, and what details they knew PH very seriously injured after being gored in abdomen and chest then the buffalo went after the hunter. In the incident the buffalo was shot multiple times but was ultimately stopped! I...

After the train wreck in Atlanta I won’t be back to DSC until it’s back in Texas or somewhere more hospitable than Atlanta! The board wants you to believe it’s all about the weather (which was a factor). The weather Thursday was very nice and the attendance was horrible! I’ll go to Nashville...

A good reason not to go through South Africa. I’ve had very little problems getting 4457 form signed but frequently used a border patrol officer in Casper Wyoming. Oh God bless his soul is now gone, but Officer Dale Latham was a true patriot who served the longest time in a uniform of any border...

No night hunting in Namibia so ask lots of questions

Yes. I love my doubles, next will be the doubles my mom and dad hunted with in it 50,60 & early 70s

I don't know about D&Y but several exhibitors stated to me that during and after the "exhibitors breakfast"several were told by staff they would not have booths in the future because they expressed their frustrations about the show and this had nothing to do with the weather! I personally...

DSC in Atlanta all 4 days was a total bust! They will try to blame the weather but Thursday and Sunday weather was beautiful. This was a total disaster only made worse by the weather. Attendance at the boat show was thought to be good by most that we talked to. Several of the exhibitors...

This maybe our last chance to put the country back on the rails

IT HAS TO BE BETTER THAN DALLAS SAFARI CLUB IN ATLANTA! A total joke, and don't let them tell you it was the weather, first 2 days total waist for exhibitors, early Friday morning got less than 2" of snow and they shut the entire city down, with 2 big convention/trade shows in town with...

From Wyoming so we have this 6-7mo per year! But in Atlanta even a single snow flake make the locals dangerous in a car GOOD CALL

I hunted with Emile in May, hundreds a hundreds of buffalo! Lots of cover for big boys. This is a first class operation and the crew will go out of their way to make sure you have a hunt of a lifetime! I will go back there in the near future.

Top Dog recommended Magnaport to me several years ago! It did my Surgery residency and fellowship in Detroit years ago and had Bill at Magnaport do custom work on multiple guns. His son now runs the Company and does a great job

Pack up the barrels and send to Magnaport in MI You will regret having anyone else do it! This is who does it for Blazer and their dealers in the US

Plan on 2ofus

30+ years of IPSC & USPSA running everything from 45 1911s to limited 40s to Open class 38 Super Comp. AR15 , FN-FALs, and AR-10s All custom with very tight tolerances, we tried everything and as crazy as it sounds STP engine oil at disassembly cleaning applied overbite, then wiped as clean...

already got my 375 & 416. 410 400gr ready to ship

FAA rule gun cases to be locked with non-TSA locks as is ammo box! TSA now also has that rule. How well is it enforced or understood, not at all! Airline ticket agents are even worse, just had one in Denver who argued with me that the orange "gun tag" needed to be on the outside. (that was...

Kennetreck Safari’s with Go Rucks my backups

Well there are several types: 1. Those with irritable tempers 2. Those who will hurt you 3. Those who are pissed off all the time 4. Those who look at you with those steel black eyes who want to more than just hurt you but want to give you a stare that makes you go “oh S__T” 5. Those if ur lucky...

Had one in a 600 Remington years ago and hunted deer with it in up of Michigan, it was a Hammer with factory Remington ammo but it kicked like a mule and didn't function that well. Traded it for a custom 35 Whelen with 225gr handholds, rifle was made by a local gunsmith in the UP who did...

Uganda in march for 3 weeks then some place later in the year, before Rocky Mountain hunting starts hopefully sage rats and praise dogs midyear

Looks like a great deal for a possible large tusker, but I'm very turned off by Mozambique $700 per gun rifle permit when they get a significant 100% upcharge in "license and government fees" This leaves the outfitter on the hook with low profit margin and significant long term financial risk...

No issues on Namibia 6 mo ago or Zimbabwe 17 mo ago I have more issues with Denver than anywhere! 20y ago Colorado was the most friendly gun state in US now it’s as bad as California or NY and way worse than Namibia! Thousands of hunters pour millions and millions of dollars into Colorado...

I don't get any of those, where do I sign up? LOL Got to love Apple Computers which filter out most of the BS!

Agree but after 18 mo I would assume all of those things have been done but may need to be repeated! A second opinion is likely in order in a major center! Good luck we will keep you in our thoughts.

Keep after it! With 40+years as a Surgical Oncologist/General Surgeon and 36years of trauma call these are difficult problems but technical improvements in wound care, antibiotics, surgical techniques, biological grafts, etc there is still hope. Going to a major center who specializes in...

Franz Albrecht has amazing skills! Only American I know who is really good on running game is Bob Beck owner of MOA Rifles, Mcmillian Stocks, Defiant Actions and Broken Top Outfitters! I have a couple good friends who are amazing on running coyotes!
