CZ Safari Classics on the way: .505, .450, .404
I have a friendship with a dealer. The basis of the friendship is very firm. He takes my money. I take his guns.

This dealer just ordered from CZ:

.505 Gibbs, 2 units
.450 Rigby, 1 unit
.404 Jeffery, 2 units

He was told by CZ-USA that he was the first "dealer" in the country to make such an order of "spec" "custom" Wink guns from the factory in KC.

They said it would take 3 to 6 months to get the building and shipping completed. They may come in one at a time or all at once.

I've got dibbs on a .404 Jeffery. I'll let y'all know if the guns ever materialize.

RIP, there are twelve step programs for this.

It starts with CZs, then, before you know it, it's Dakotas, then the jones requires Wiebes, Echols, etc., until finally only a bespoke Holland & Holland or Purdey will kill that dull, aching pain in your gut.

Get some help, man!

I get buyer remorse at $650 for a CZ.

Turn that .375 H&H into a .375 WBY and you will feel better.

RIP,

Will you set up the .505 & .404 differently, on save one as NIB? Are the doubles stocked the same? Will they be consecutive serial numbers on the RIP Gibbs & Jefferies inventory?

Why only one .450? bewildered

Jerry

I really would be happier for you, but right now I hate your shopping technique.

I would be more excited about being able to buy two Yugos and keeping one NIB, but hey, that's just me. Lord knows the Yugos are finished better than the CZ
