I'm sorry, but that type of expensive humor and joke does absolutely nothing for me. I guess each to their own however. A guy shooting that must be required to wear a pith helmet, large gold chains and pantaloons as mandatory gear!

After a bit of thought, my ardor has waned.

For a moment consider our PH friend when his exuberant client, Cheshire Cat smile akimbo, beckons him over as he pulls this baby from his mink-lined case.

Knowing the owner who commissioned the rifle, it is very fitting with his personality. He's a great guy.
