That thompson is likely from WWII. Probably some South African soldier got it when deployed in north Africa or Italy.
Question, where exactly is Limpopo?
Just north of Gauteng
My cousin's going on a hunting trip there, what kind of stuff lives there?
Basically the top of south Africa bordering Zimbabwe
Nothing really just people
Must be something because he's taking a large gun with him
I don't think people are usually deserving of a .458 Win Mag
Lol normally thats what you take when going hunting
I mean people don't usually need a .458 to put down, animals might
Will probably see the usual antelopes and such.
Just checked his email he sent me, apparently wildebeest too
Some nice meat on that yea
Hope he's not hunting anything exotic though as that earns foreign hunters a very bad reputation.
Been several incidents of foreigners hunting lions then posting pictures on social media which earns them some serious backlash and honestly rightly so... Not a fan of people hunting lions and other exotic animals.
As for bucks go ahead no problem with those as make a good meal.
From his email:
Cape Buffalo
Sable
Nyala
Black Wildebeest
Blue Wildebeest
With a company called Dinkwe Safaris
Those are all run of the mill game animals nothing special
Well atleast whatever he's hunting he's gonna get a good peace of meat
If I recall he wanted to get one of those heads mounted, don't recall which one though
Anyone works I guess
Well if it's his first hunt in SA then he must abide by this tradition ☝ https://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/a22eca/guy_goes_on_a_hunt_and_singlehandedly_carries_his/
Oh hes gonna get some blood and guts 😂
This ain't his first rodeo.
Did he do it in SA
And taking an .458 Will be overkill for everything but the buffalo
Yep, he does all his African hunts in SA
Ah ok lol
He wanted to do it in Kenya but their laws suck apparently
Go to Tanzania. My uncle handles the hunting part there
He's not sure if he'll have the money to go again after this trip, he retires in five years. He wanted to finish his African hunts with the 5 he most wanted to get.
Oh okay
He works at a print shop so he's not a rich man, he's been saving for years.
Hey a job is a job
He's got a hell of a gun collection, but he's left handed so I can't shoot most of his bolt-action hunting rifles.
Lol. Atleast he has something to look at
