Tuffpak & DG Rifles for Loan

I know the African hunting season is already underway, but if anyone is headed that way and is in proximity to Jacksonville, Florida and would like to use my TuffPak, it's available for loan.

I doubt seriously I'll get back to Africa unless the lottery is good to me, and the case is just sitting in my garage, gathering dust.

I also have the cloth sack that goes with it.

It was bought in the mid-90's and has wheels and the vending-machine lock, with two sets of keys. It has been to Africa twice and Texas once and is still good as new, if somewhat battle-scarred.

I will loan it out at no charge with the understanding that if it were stolen, lost or damaged beyond repair it would be replaced.

I'm not worried about a few nicks, scratches or dings--just adds to the case's well-traveled ambiance.

PM me and I'll provide a cell phone number or other contact info.

I also have a Win70 375 H&H and a Steyr .458 Win Mag I could loan out if somebody is going for DG but wants to forego the pleasure of buying a caliber-appropriate rifle. Obviously I'd need a written agreement regarding replacement in case of damage or loss. And you'd need a 4457 in your name, so some coordination would be necessary.
