Wanted Good Used .470 Double Rifle

I did not, but I think I am going to be buying a rifle next week. Not sure yet, but closing in on one.
 
There’s something funny about this forum, you’re getting a double and yet I’m feeling excited about it half way across the world from you.

BTW, I’ve got the K gun in 470NE with a second 9.3x74R barrel set and I’m really happy with it.
 
This is a great community, always so helpful. I bought a Krieghoff in .470 NE today. Should have it in a few weeks, will be sure to post photos. I want to thank everyone who sent me messages or posted on this board. I really appreciate all the help!
 
Congratulations on your new acquisition, Beck!! Enjoy shooting the new DR.

I think we all enjoy enabling each other. ;)

Good point. I can blame you guys for this later!
"well honey, the guys at Africa hunting made me do it"
Well good luck with that excuse. :LOL:

Really pleased for you Beck. That wait is pretty short, and it is great to do all the dreaming while you wait. Pictures there must be.
 
If you don’t already have dies, brass and bullets I’ll mail you some as I’m apparently out of the 470 game.
 
I have a Searcy 470NE unfired as wasn't completed in time for my Africa hunt.

Bummer! Did your delivery date slip?

In my case, I always want to "brush up my skills" before I travel somewhere where I need to shoot well, whether targets or game.
 
Looking for a good used .470 NE double rifle. Would like to stick to Merkel, Krieghoff, or Heym - I am on a budget of 10-12k which I doubt will afford me any fancy engravings.
i have one, it's a .470 NE, real nice, no marks. if still interested let me know
