Just received my Nimrod Elephant Gun back from Hamilton Bowen. Grips by Rob Rowen. Cant wait for hunting season.

VERY NICE, WHAT IS THE CALIBER?
"ADAPT OR DIE". I USE ALL CAPS, NOT BECAUSE I AM YELLING, BUT BECAUSE IT IS AN OLD HABIT FROM MY ARMY DAYS, PLUS IT IS EASIER TO TYPE AND READ.

If it were supposed to be easy, they'd have sent my little sister to do it.

That is an awesome investment into a fabulous looking piece. Love the barrel band stop to keep the ejector rod tube from loosening under intense recoil. LOL!! Hamilton Bowen is an artisan and a gunsmith in one. You have excellent taste in gun projects sir.
