Paul, you need not be jealous. The wood on your "bespoke" V-C .600 makes me want to throw rocks at mine.  Deo Vindice, Don Sons of Confederate Veterans Black Horse Camp #780 | |||

Seeing the 500 along with the 577 makes me want to buy that V-C 450-400 that's for sale in the Classified section.  Were I not trying to pinch as many pennies as possible for my Great Caprivi/Sobbe Elephant Adventure with Pops I'd be all over it and taking photos like those above. I have to get me a zebra skin as a background for photos.

Hey Ozhunter, Glad you bumped that up - well worth drooling over Don's Verney-Carron doubles again particularly the 500 in its place of honor the elephant Don took.

Beautiful Ozhunter, it is coming along and it beautiful. The Verney-Carron family do great work. Looking forward to seeing the finished double and a target showing its functional beauty as well. Best of luck and congratulations, Paul NRA Lifer; DSC Lifer; SCI member; DRSS; AR member since November 9 2003 Don't Save the best for last, the smile for later or the "Thanks" for tomorow | |||

Was due for the end of this month (8 or 9 months) but due to Safari dates being so close, I've asked them to hold off until August. | |||

Damn Adam, it's a tough life! Hate it when the safari dates are so close!   As I oftentimes say, if you're looking for sympathy, you came to the wrong f****in place. I'm happy for you "mate"! Deo Vindice, Don Sons of Confederate Veterans Black Horse Camp #780 | |||

ozhunter, it looks great! my VC 500NE is 5mths into build and sceduled for delivery in Sydney early September, just in time for our Buffalo hunt with Rigby 350 [ harry ] and guys in the Northern Territory. They may well ship them together. Can't wait to see them. Did you see Gary's 450 400 and Georges 470 VC'S. I beleive they arrived a couple of weeks ago. cheers NICK | |||

Hi Nick, Yes, they probably will send ours together and I did see the 450/400. When they arrive we must catch up for a shot. Regards, Adam | |||
