What would you like to know about the rifle? Duane made the rifle for himself for a buff hunt in Tanzania. It's a standard Mauser action (Berlin of early serial #) worked over to perfection. Double square bridge to accomodate the claw mounts. Barrel has integral hardware, including the banded island rear sight and front sight.

The rifle is scary accurate and returns to zero very well. A bit on the light side for the horsepower, weighing 10 lbs, 4 oz's. The metalwork is just amazing.

I'm the owner of the rifle now and fully intend on putting it to good use as soon as I can on a few buff and jumbo.

I have tried to take more detailed photos of the rifle, but my photos never turn out well enough to give due credit to the maker or the rifle itself.
