Nobody's offered to pay my time, as I said above. I also said above that it has a Leupold Vari X III, 1.75x-6x, in some kind of fancy rings, like Talley or something. It's a 375 H&H, which Taylor said is "Undoubtedly one of the deadliest weapons in existence." I killed a mule deer with that caliber in a Ruger #1 once. Dropped at the shot and no real meat damage.

I do have some photos of other guns, though. Here's a Browning 1886 SRC High Grade with some of the most perfectly quarter sawn wood you'll ever see on a factory gun. Note how the two sides are nearly identical:

The Caprivi really isn't anything special, so don't worry about it. Nowhere near as good as my original Argentine 1909. One of the finest military rifles ever made. I bought it new in 1979, in the original factory cosmoline.


Jesus, how far did you have to chase the pimp to get that away from him ?
