Re: The Blixen Museum .350 Magnum RigbyMauser







Jens,

Thanks for posting. Had not seen this thread previously.

Someone mentioned cleaning it up. I would leave it just as it is, vintage, used, still beautiful.

Its a real pity the rifle has been permanently deactivated, but ...

I can imagine the stories it has seen. Was it used during Karen Blixen's lion hunts? Probably. In her books and stories she mentions she liked hunting lions and a .350 would be a suitable calibre for that.

Again thanks for posting but ...

... do you also have made pics from the hammergun?




Yes I held the hammer gun and made pictures. I`LL post them later. Its a Husqvarna 12bore belonged to Wilhelm Dinesen( Karens father).




... have you posted these photos? Would be great to see them too. As you know, I'm never satisfied!

Thanks again for posting.
