Just wanted to add my name to the long list of people that have been cheated by Todd Rice of Sonoran Outfitters. A good friend of mine did a Bison hunt with Todd Rice several years ago and said it was one of the best hunts he had ever been on so another friend and I booked the same hunt with Todd Rice for this past December. We both sent deposits totaling $12,000 and then he went dark on us. Wouldn't answer emails, texts, or phone calls. Finally not long before the hunt was scheduled to happen he texted that it wasn't safe to go there and he would refund "every penny of our money". Well now it has become a never ending number of excuses as to why he hasn't paid us. When I finally did research which I should have done in the beginning I see he pulled the exact same scenario on another person in 2023. Turns out he has had many judgements against him for pulling these same things including a large judgement by the Arizona District Attorney's office for 10 individuals. I'm in the process of filing a claim against him with the District Attorney's Office and we'll see what happens with that. Just want to be sure that none of you on this site make the same mistake I've made.
 
Yeah, there are a bunch of internet articles about him and his outfit. It’s maddening that he’s still ripping people off more than 7 years after having been adjudged a scammer by the Arizona AG.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...
Behind the scenes of taking that perfect picture.....

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
