Prima edizione
Hardcover. Condizione: Like New. First Edition. Pages toned; else in Near Fine condition. With information on the history of the sport, rifles, handguns, ammunition, rules, competition, latest developments, and more. Elgin T Gates (1922 ? 1988) was an American hunter, adventurer, author, and firearms and ammunition technician. Gates was a central person in the development of handgun metallic silhouette shooting, and served as president of the International Handgun Metallic Silhouette Association. During his leadership of IHMSA, Elgin published a newsletter titled The Silhouette. Gates won the Weatherby Big Game Trophy award in 1960. A few years later, when an international jury selected the six greatest living hunters, he was in their ranks, with his selection being heralded with a comment: ?Elgin Gates is considered by many authorities to be the greatest hunter of them all.? He was inducted into the Big Game Hall of Fame in 1978 and a year before his death was recipient of what was often styled the Oscar of handgunning, the Outstanding Handgunner Award.

Else in Very Good+ condition and Near Fine to Fine Dustjacket. Inscribed on title page "With best personal regards of the author Elgin T. Gates". Uncommon with non-personalized inscription. A bright, fresh copy. "Elgin Gates was among the most well traveled and greatest sporting hunter's of the 20th Century. He hunted Africa for nearly 30 years, many of his hunts were true expeditions into areas unknown. He had a standing agreement with Jack Blacklaws (one of Africa's greatest and most debonair White Hunters) that Elgin would fund any exploratory safari into virgin country, provided Elgin went along, then Blacklaws could have it to take the rest of his clients. Through this type of agreement, Gates helped to reopen French Equatorial Africa, Sudan, Uganda, and Mozambique to sport hunting. In doing so, Gates got first crack at wildlife virtually unknown to the outside world. Some instances, Gates would explore by himself, flying into some remote village in the wilds of Africa and hiring the locals to help him mount an expedition. Gates has 152 African trophies listed in Rowland Ward's Records of Big Game. He also has 54 trophies from Asia listed and 26 from North America, for a total of 232 in the book. He was the Weatherby Award winner in 1960." He died in 1988. Signed by Author.
