    Bush Jackets

    I guess from Vienna you could get to Africa for $800. Sadly for those of us on the Left Coast of N. America it's LOT more. And that jacket is nonsense, anyway.

    Scored on a Wm. Reid (probably made by Wesley Richards). The wood is remarkable.

    RIP Land Rover Defender

    As it turns out, there IS a new Defender. And it might not even be too terrible. Diehard traditionalists will doubtless object to the more aerodynamic body and grumble mightily about 'the damned gov-mint makin' all them fake safety and mileage demands" but it might just turn out fairly well...

    Safari Shopping

    I just came across this zombie thread. Safari gear you want? TAG is your source. Made in Africa by Africans for Africa.

    He will be missed, indeed.

    Bush Jackets

    Absolutely. There is no excuse for charging that much for a simple safari jacket just because it has Ascot Chang's name on it.

    Bush Jackets

    One would be a good thing to keep an eye on eBay for. I have a zillion pocket, wrinkle free sports coat from TravelSmith that is perfectly practical but lacks the style of the Tilley.

    Anyone into tent camping?

    I spent last deer and elk seasons in a well-built, properly equipped wall tent. My new hunting partner loves tents. :rolleyes: This coming deer season I will be in a guided hunt cabin and during elk season I will be on a river cruise in France. We'll see how 2020 turns out . . .

    I don't know who makes this one but it has the style perfectly.

    Classic Safari vehicles!

    Obviously not a 'classic' yet, but this holds great promise. Add a hunter seat with rifle rack in the bed and I think 'it will do'.

    Classic Safari vehicles!

    Ah yes, the Land Cruisers of the '70's. Classic safari cars for wherever your safari is going. Thanks Mike. That's a great reference. I'm going to keep my eye open. One of those would be just what the NCO (ret.) needs.

    Gunbroker is the better site for ammo, IMO.

    Must take and post picture, but I just got hold of a Sauer & Sohn double rifle in 7x57R. Now I need the Zeiss scope and some claw mounts. It's going to Italy next May. Boar beware!

    Classic Safari vehicles!

    After my first safari, I came down with an acute desire for a Toyota Landcruiser pickup with safari seat behind the cab and a winch for that express purpose. Then I discovered that I couldn't get one in the US. Poo!

    RIP Land Rover Defender

    Oh S**t! There's an Alfa-Romeo Spider for sale about 17 miles away and it's under $4K. Quick, Sarge, get rational. You don't have a garage, it's full of woodworking machinery. You really could make use of a pickup. Think of all the metric tools you'll need to get, etc., etc. I'm really...

    Migawd, that's a lovely motor.

    So I went into the local gun store looking for this: And there, sitting forlorn in a case, was this! So what was I supposed to do? I 'needed' the Ruger but a 1948 S&W K-22 Masterpiece? On sale because no-one else wanted it? Yeah, I got 'em both. And guess which one is the sweeter...

    What is your favorite aircraft of all time?

    I went to see the one at the LACNHM. You walk underneath it and look and all you can think is, "They put THIS is orbit?" An amazing craft.
