Cold burnishing of metal parts

I have a Mauser M18 that use every day.
Don’t spare him a bit. It works perfectly.
But, on the part of the barrel that I often touch with sweaty hands, the black color has faded. It doesn't bother me at all because it's a working rifle, but I'm interested and want try can do the burnishing myself with a tool for that purpose. I bought this tool from Balsitol and will try it. Has anyone tried this and how did it go? Thank youIMG_4114.jpegIMG_4116.jpeg

Rigby scope mounting issues

Recently purchased a 404J Rigby. Picked up a set of Talley QD mounts. Went to install them today and realized that the rear square bridge has to be drilled and tapped.

No one anywhere around me that I would trust to do something like that.

Any other suggestions as to scope mounting or do I just bite the proverbial bullett and find someone to ship the rifle to?

Thanks!

Creatine NativePath

Creatine NativePath is generally easy to incorporate into a daily routine. Most research recommends consuming approximately three to five grams of creatine monohydrate each day.

Snakes!

Just some random interesting photos about snakes....

An epic prinitive clash..

A King Cobra (the world's longest venomous snake) has attempted to catch, kill and eat this Reticulated Python (grows to be the longest snake in the world) and has been coiled and strangled by the python and died in the process.
Both were dead when found.

The King has met its match...

Africa...when will you be priced out??

I never thought that I would ever think this way, but my Safari days might me coming to a close. It's getting to the point where I can't afford it anymore.

Airfare has almost doubled in the last 5? years. The prices that outfitters are charging, outside of RSA and Namibia have skyrocketed.
For example, I shot a Leopard in Zambia 5 years ago for $20,000 total, and now the same PH is charging $40,000. And that's before baits, tips, govt fees, then dip and pack, shipping, customs broker, etc...
