hello rigbymauser

well done and I wish to had been there with you. I can understand the laments about that this rifle is a wallhanger but its a part of the Blixen museum now till civilisation turns into babarism completly. and I must say the good thing is that a wallhanger would not attract thiefs so much. its a simple country house and not a safe. in theory the rifle could be bring back to service anytime. also the welded barrel could be sleeved. but why? it is what it is, the old hunting rifle of karen blixen.

do you also have made pics from the hammergun?

just in time I have got a copy from Peter Beard book and there a re a lot of pics from Karen Blixen and around. a good book that I can real recommend
