And when will it be in stock?

With an o/u single trigger shotgun on driven pheasants and partridge, I shoot the top barrel first as it is the easiest reload in a hurry.

And scroll a little further down and read “how to pack your firearms and ammunition” and you will see the following extract: If you're travelling to/from South Africa, Italy, or from Romania, check in your firearms and ammunition in individual locked cases, separate from any checked bag with...

If you were charged, then it was done incorrectly. Their carriage terms clearly state they don’t. I flew in March and was only charge for a rifle. A friend flew out in April and was also only charged for a rifle. As I have said, read their terms, print out the section next time and refer the...

Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris!
