I just listed this on gunbroker, and if you would like to see the pics of it, here are the links: http://pics.gunbroker.com/GB_Temp/~ah146121629664662.jpg http://pics.gunbroker.com/GB_Temp/~ah14625849696463.jpg http://pics.gunbroker.com/GB_Temp/~ah146144818092964.jpg http://pics.gunbroker.com/GB_Temp/~ah14613900935665.jpg
Here is the description:
This is a PERFECT A-bolt II White Gold Medallion in .375 Holland & Holland. It was built in 2008 especially for the Safari Club International. It has an engraved stainless steel receiver mated to a fluted stainless 26" heavy barrel and a Grade A Walnut stock. This rifle is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! It is an uncatalogued model and according to another that sold on gunsamerica.com, it is only one of 100. It has been fired a grand total of four times, and since then has been a safe queen. It comes like new in box with all the manuals, plastic wrapping, etc. that it would have when new, even matching stainless strap swivels. If you are going on safari to Africa or coastal brown bear hunting in Alaska and don't want to shell out for a Blaser, this is a gorgeous, powerful, quality rifle in a versatile and classic caliber that is legal for and deadly against ANY game that walks the planet. (BY THE WAY...I'm selling this because I am planning to buy a left-handed .375, but there is NOTHING wrong with it) Payment needs to be either a cashier's check or a postal money order, or you can add 3% and pay using paypal or gunpal. I WILL SHIP DIRECTLY TO YOU if you live in Texas, anywhere else I will have to ship it to your FFL. If it's not legal to own where you live, do not bid. I will ship only to the Continental US for the listed shipping price. Anywhere else will require contacting in advance and discussion of fees.
Anyway, if any of you are interested, I will be happy to hear offers. The reserve is quite a bit lower than the Buy It Now price, and if one of you wants to buy it outright, I can delete the gunbroker ad and possibly sell it for a bit less because no one is taking out fees. Thanks!

Thanks for the pictures. BTW, you should remove the reference to PayPal since guns are a big no no on PP. They will suspend your account as well as that of any buyer using PP for a forbidden item. They will impound your funds for months while they "investigate". You may wish to read #2 in this link: https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=ua/AcceptableUse_fullAnd, Yes, they have people watching all firearms auction sites and blogs to nail PP members violating the rules.

Huh. That's funny...almost everyone who has ever bought something from me on gunbroker paid through paypal. Good to know, though! For the record, folks...if you buy my gun, either pay via gunpal, postal MO, or certified check.

It would be easier to view if you took it out of the plastic bag

Due to popular request, I am uploading some better pics. Also, while taking pictures and closely examining in BRIGHT sunlight, I noticed three VERY SMALL flaws in the stock, two on the left side right along the edge of the monte carlo raised cheekpiece, and one that was apparently already in the wood prior to laquering on the right side (don't know if that counts as a flaw since it was apparently pre-production.) Gun is still 99.5%

Folks, a longtime member was kind enough to PM me and let me know that it's not good 24HC etiquette to post a link on here to my GB auction. I'm learning all of this and don't want to ruffle any feathers, so please accept my meekest apologies for any decorum infractions. I definitely want to "live at peace" with all of you, and I thank you for those of you who--with great patience--have advised me on how to do this. :-) Your comments and messages are appreciated. Take care!
