Roy, Rene and Alan came over to spend a few days with us.

The visit was far too short, and they have flown back home, with the promises that we will see them in 5 month's time in the Selous.

We shot lots of rifles and pistols. Even Hessa joined in and loaded some ammo for Roy to shoot.

Both Roy and Alan enjoy shooting pistols, and this is the selection they made to try.









Alan and Roy trying a new rifle I built. It is based on a Hall action, single shot, in 308 Winchester with a tight neck.

Hessa sure is growing up fast!

My thoughts exactly. Seems like yesterday when she was born.

All look happy and well. Say "Hi" for me.
And a wonderful time was indeed had by all, even those all around the world getting vicarious jollies from the sharing here.
Thanks!
Be sure Hessa supervises Walter if he gets near the reloading bench.

The smiles say it all!!!

I agree with Ann, I can't believe how grown up Hessa is!!! Hope she gets to go on the next safari!

Best regards, D. Nelson

Fantastic and great handgun selection! The H&K P9S is still seen from time to time in German competition circles!

Saeed there is no denying that young reloader belongs to you.

Mike

Great pictures of Hessa really concentrating on reloading; congratulations Saeed on teaching such enthusiasm and dedication

Great pics Saeed! Glad to hear you had a great visit, which is pretty evident by the smiles. Hessa sure has grown in only about 7 months!
Best regards,
Chris

What fun to have friends together. Everyone looks so happy. Congratulations.

Hessa is a beautiful girl/will be a beautiful woman. Saeed, you will need those handguns.

Saeed:

Very nice; thanks for sharing a glimpse into your personal life.

This year will be the 31st year since I started hunting with the Vincents.

And I have known Walter for longer than that.

And as you cam imagine, when old friends who have known each other for so long, there is lots of things to talk about.

Saeed,

It looks like you all had a wonderful time.... and what a beautiful relationship with the Vincent's...31 years that's a lot of time to build a relationship....and the type of relationship judging by the smiles by everyone in the photos show forth much peace and happiness and contentment.

Thanks for sharing!
I salute you all

Lovely pics....I bet Walther has had an influence with the selection of handguns....very Teutonic you might say.....I bet he grins slyly to himself when he is fondling that old P08.....and mumbling something like "ha ha ze British could never have put togetzer sometzing perfekt like tzis..."

The old Lugers ARE put together very nice....I still have fond memories of a 1915 DWM Luger..

Great photos!!

Thanks so much for sharing Saeed! I am so amazed at how Hessa has grown! You both are so blessed!
