Jack Lotts Bore Rifle Article??

Fella's,
Anybody have a copy of Jack Lotts Big Bore Rifle Magazine from 1983 I think, That could scan a copy of the article
"Big Bores of the British Empire" and email it to me?
Thank you in advance!!!

CJO and all interested parties:
I have the article on my website and about 100 others--all vintage articles on double rifles and hunting in Africa. Go to:

calpappas.com
click magazine articles from the past
click on double rifles
click on bore rifles

and you will find it and a load of like information. I scanned all these for gents like you to use. Tell me if you find what you are looking for as this and others are available on the bore rifles.
Cheers,
Cal
PS. Did I mention I have a book on bore rifles for sale?????

Cal,

Thanks for having that article up by JJ Fenykovi...I grew up near DC and saw that elephant many times when in town...always wondered what the 'rest of the story' was...

Glad to be of help, BaxterB.
The rest of you gents take a look at the website and see the old articles, about 100, that have been forgotten to time. Lot's of great stuff here back in the days when doubles were a tool and not a status symbol.
Chris: Your article is copied and will be posted today.
Cheers,

Thanks Cal, last fall I was telling the staff at Wolfe Pub that they need to get a copy of Jack's Big Bore rifle book ( the first edition ) as no one there had seen it or even knew it existed. When they looked it up to order one on Amazon the only one they could find was $300 !!

I made photo copies of mine and sent it to them. Thank you for sharing with everyone here.

Anyone who claims the 30-06 is ineffective has either not tried one, or is unwittingly commenting on their own marksmanship
