I went to africa recently and shot a bull elephant with ivory weighing around 75lbs. I was very excited and for some reason was compeled to stick my brand new rifle into the elephant's anus. Unfortunately after extraction I was horrified to observe a terribly corroded barrel. Now a rotten odor lingers, any suggestions on removing it? Thank You.

You've really got to be making this up.

New to Hunting?

I thought that everyone knew that when sticking your gun in an Elephants Ass you need to use a condom.

Was it Fun?

Seriously, try taking a shower and using anti bacterial soap.

Thanks for the advice, I will restrict my inpulses next time.

As long as it was a Marlin .45/70, no loss.

When they told you to get a bit of "tail" from the ele to signify it was yours I think they meant something else.

Thanks.....I haven't laughed this hard in a very long time.....

Clean your barrel with toilet bowl cleaner.

"I felt compelled...." Your'e not serious! Must be something in the 'magic' of Africa that I've somehow missed so far. I think I have now read it all on AR. Still being dumbstruck by the post, I would suggest a competent gunsmith. Any out there that would like to take this one on?

Geez,

And I used a rusty knife to get a bit 'o the ele's tail. I feel cheated somehow...not sure why?

This is your rifle, this is your gun...

Please go play somewhere else...

Might I suggest cleaning your rifle with shampoo. Preferably the same shampoo you use to clean your head when you pull it out of your ass?

Regards,

Terry

Lack of respect for the animal aside, I agree with T.Carr.

Maybe it is the god of the hunt giving you a little something to think about. Better protect the rifling fast, that last few inches of the barrel are really important to accuracy.

Everyone go back and look at what this guy has posted in the past.

Ive heard of a "Texas heart shot" but thats rediculous!!
I suppose you were happy with the penatration!!

I've alway heard if you're going to mount a trophy it was best done before it's gutted This the first time I know of some one actually following that little bit of wisdom!

Could this be a "cat" sneaking around?????

Sorry for your situation. Wish I something more to offer! But...sounds as if you took a great ele. If you don't mind me asking, where did you take it and who were you hunting with?
Regards. Brennan

Are you sure it was the barrel that you stuck up there????????????????

Hey, we just found a new profession for Wynwood/cats/driver & Carmello aka Mitchell Attlewood. An asshole cleaning rod for elephants.
Say, here's an observation: What do all these guys have in common?. Everytime one of their names come up, the use of the word asshole always finds it's way into the conversation. Fascinating.....jorge

When you shot him was he wearing your pajamas?

I suggest you leave it just as it is ... the perfect elephant gun. Customs will open the case for a total of three seconds and you can smoke cigars while you're hunting!

I think you were hard up for sometihing to write today. What a dumb ass. After you get your head out of your ass, just let it rot off.

you gotta be shittn me - hope it was a blaser

Butchloc, please allow me to hijack this thread, while trying to get something worthwhile out of this …..whatever.

What do you have against a Blaser? It’s a design that does not appeal to me esthetically, but I’ve been rather impressed with what I’ve seen on safari.

What’s your take on the Blaser?

Riaan,

It seemed clear to me that Butchloc feels Blasers are the perfect tool to use when giving elephants an enema!

Eric, I will have to bow to Butchloc’s (supposedly) superior knowledge regarding enemas, but I sure reckon this rifle will also work great for less “soiled†applications.

I think maybe that I've found my nitch in life. I will produce a solvent for removing elephant crap from rifle barrels. Market it with the saying "removes all the crap from the barrel on the first application".

I think he got his "rifle" and "gun" confused.

I have heard penicillen works for clearing up problems like that.

Maybe a good antibiotic ointment.

If not give it a good scrubing with a mixture of gasoline, and bleach. Should cure things up quick.

1 1/2 oz Fleets Phospho-soda down the barrel should do nicely. Sure cleans people out for colonoscopies.

I think 1115 is right, there's a "cat" sneaking around here somewhere. What a pathetic and gross topic. I mean honestly, WTF? Is this the only thing you could think of? I think someone needs some psychological help.

Eland Slayer I believe you are dead on. Help is
needed. I just wonder if this fool is married?
If so, God help her.

And there are some here who actually question the ethics of Mark Sullivan...

What do you want to bet that he actually pulled the trigger...

Hey Jorge, you keep trying to find a way to pull me into your little lovefest with CATS.

I no longer engage in AR internet squabbles.
However since you have so much free time on your hands I could use my hedges trimmed.

i was going to make a post about alien probes... and then something about sh!tty guns... and then something about texas heart shots...

or even the surprise that it would smell bad....


but I'll just wonder why he didn't go ahead and pull the trigger?... guess teh rifle will get sh!tty groups now... with that sh!tty finish...

I bet a fresh bottle of cold blue will be about the only thing in the world that would cover up the smell.....


"so i was thinking, it would be a good idea to shove my rifle barrel up the anus of an elephant... must be a good sheath"...
