Hey guys! Sorry I haven't been around much. Just real busy moving to Arizona Dave's area, new shop, wife in and out (healthy) of the hospital. Just been really busy. I've got a #1 Tropical 458 with a Vortex Crossfire 1.5 x 4 x 32 scope. Rifle has a few nicks and light use, but in excellent overall condition. $995.00 and you pay the shipping.

That is a very nice rifle sir. Anyone going on a first safari this would be an excellent big game rifle. It's capable of taking plains game and the big five!
Not a bad price either folks. Hope you get some bites Ornery!
 
Thanks CA
 
Bump
 
Bump for a great rifle!
 
Would you trade it for a all inclusive Texas hog hunt?
 
Actually if you could come in the fall Id do a guided 1x1 unlimited hog hunt and include 1 whitetail doe, or rio turkey of your choosing, lodging, meals, and some bass fishing two days three nights.
 
This is a rifle that needs to be used in Africa Gizmo....you should sweeten the deal!

That's a 1700$ value on a (doe) deer/hog 2 day 3 night hunt.
 
When you coming to Africa again? I could be tempted, shhh don't tell my wife :)
Just need to check one or two things but definatly on the list to have
 
I asked the owner if he wanted to trade for the hunt, (it's his personal rifle) and he said he just needs the cash for another project...sorry. The rifle is now without the scope, sold that. He says he will take $900 plus shipping for it. I will take all offers to him....cheers mates!

Well thanks for askin for me, I appreciate it.
 
Bump...still looking for an offer :>
 
Still available ...
 
Ornery I am showing this to a neighbor in Overland Park Kansas who says he wants one. Is it available without the scope?
 
I posted above that the scope is all ready sold. The rifle is a good deal at that price. Cheers!
 
Still available
 
Can you post a pic showing it without the scope? and close ups of the sites, especially the front one?

Charles, have you shot yours yet?
 
Can post one for you on Monday
 
Royal I have not taken the 458 to the range yet. Will do that next weekend.

Hi Jay,

Hope you're well.

I'm headed your way in January.

Attending SHOT Show has been a long time bucket list item for me.

Finally made it happen and I'm headed to Vegas.

I know you're some distance from Vegas - but would be keen to catch up if it works out.

Have a good one.

Mark
