A-Square
Hannibal
Dallas Safari Club
John "Pondoro" Taylor Memorial Series Rifle
.416 Rigby
This is the first in a series of 10 memorial rifles built by A-Square for the Dallas Safari Club starting in 1991. Only 1 gun was built each year.
These rifles were named after individuals who, by their actions, contributed to the hunting heyday and mystique of Africa. The people memorialized helped carve out the Africa we know, publicize it throughout the world, and establish the sport of trophy hunting as we know it today.
Other notable figures commemorated in this series are, John Hunter, Karamojo Bell, Theodore Roosevelt, Frederick Courtney Selous and Peter Hathaway Capstick.
