I just came back from the Louisville Gun Day gun show and have the following to report:

George W. Hodge, Gun Depot Gun Shop, 1033 West Main, Princeton, KY 42445 (phone 270-365-7050 fax 270-365-7051) has a new in box CZ 550 .505 Gibbs for sale. The rifle was ordered by a customer who had a custom stock made for it with the intent to hunt with it in Africa. However, a heart attack intervened, and the customer is now forbidden from shooting the gun by his doctor. Consequently it and the stock are for sale for a total of $2000. Given the difficulties cited earlier with the CZ rifle, this may not be appealing, but at that price, I would think a good deal of corrective work could be done and still keep the total investment quite modest, relatively speaking. At the present, I have all the .505 rifles I need, so I am passing this on to whomever it might appeal to.

I didn't ask because I am not in the market for one. Give Rob a call, he is in the book, and he will be able to tell you if it is still available. Last time I spoke to him someone was seriously considering it.

Thanks, I have enough of them already, it was just for interest sake, that's all.

Nice looking gun though.
