• Hey All! Lately there has been more and more scammers on the forum board. They register and replies to members requests for guns and/or parts or other things. The reply contains a gmail or hotmail address or similar ”anonymous” email addresses which they want you to reply to. DO NOT ANSWER ANY STRANGE MESSAGES! They often state something like this: ”Hello! Saw your post about purchasing a stock for a Safari. KnuckleheadBob has one. Email him at: [email protected]” If you receive any strange messages: Check the status of whoever message you. If they have no posts and signed up the same day or very recently, stay away. Same goes for other members they might refer to. Check them too and if they are long standing members, PM them and ask if the message is legit. Most likely it’s not. Then use the report function in each message or post so I can kick them out! Beware of anything that might seem fishy! And again, for all of you who registered your personal name as username, please contact me so I can change it to a more anonymous username. You’d be surprised of how much one can find out about a person from just a username on a forum such ad our! All the best! And be safe! Jim

Hi,
Just got a Dickson Howa Golden Bear. Put it next to my Finnbear and It is awfully similar. I can understand why Sako was unhappy. Can't find anything about it in any of the books.
Anyone have an idea what it is worth? This gun appears unfired-no marks or brass on the bolt face or rails, and still has heavy grease in the action. I don't want to shoot it -yet. I also have Safari grade in 222 and had an L57 243 made for Monkey Wards- still have the barrel. I'll get some photos done in a week or so. I look forward to hearing from any one who knows something about these guns. Thank you.
