Cz 550 safari magnum on 505 Gibbs with custom stock

I can not pass by this gun without getting drawn in. Krish if I were not in the middle of a 505 Gibbs build this rifle would be hard to pass up. Especially since it is exactly what I am having built. Beautiful rifle my friend, absolutely beautiful!!
 
Anyone on the fence looking for a .500 should take a look at Guns International and .505 Gibbs for sale. You will see this is 1/4 the price of others. With available components. Rare and affordable.

this has all the upgrades and is a steal.
 
I will add that IMHO we are in the sweet spot for custom “African style” rifles pricing. Manufacturers will not be able to hold current prices much longer. Employees wages, materials, equipment cost, building purchase or rent, energy cost, everything has gone up and will never come back to where they were. Anyone still able to stay in business in this tiny market will be forced to raise prices incrementally and often. Or all at once.

So as a result the preowned models will increase in value. 3 years from now. Anyone looking for a preowned “African rifle” will remember the glory days we are in right now.

I will add a prediction we can look up in 3 years. This same rifle will cost you at least $10K

I'm not sure if this is encouragement to help buy it, or create doubt in the sellers decision to let it go at this time. :ROFLMAO:

In any event, it's a steal at this price. GLWTS @krish
 
He does not usually follow his own advice. :cool: He usually buys high and sells low.
Just as in Golf, I know how I should swing. But that doesn’t mean I can do it.
 
Not for sale anymore at this time. Decided to keep it. Going back to Vault.
Thanks for looking.
Krish

Nugget here. A guide gave me the nickname as I looked similar to Nugent at the time. Hunting for over 50 years yet I am new to hunting in another country and its inherent game species. I plan to do archery. I have not yet ruled out the long iron as a tag-along for a stalk. I am still deciding on a short list of game. Not a marksman but better than average with powder and string.
