Please read my post about Kewin MAY not be able to ship trophies since he took over in 2023 for his now deceased father. I hope someone corrects me.

Kewin has not (as far as I'm aware) been able to ship hunter's trophies since he took over in 2023 for his now deceased father Alan Lefol. He MAY not be operating legally. If someone knows otherwise, please let me know. SCI is opening an investigation on the matter I know as they know of...

Thank you for comments, Scott. But, per prior posts, he has not met his own shipment deadline by several months. btw: I hunted there in May of 2024. And, when I tried to get status updates, it was very difficult to get responses. When did, I received varying responses with some of which...

And, I understand getting late much more than never getting.

Okay. Well, remember you can also go to Mayo Oldiri in Cameroon, others in CAR, tj3 Rift Valley of Kenya (Mayeb biggest and ugliest, etc. Just trying to warm/caution in case want bongo home. Good Luck.

Please read previous posts about concerns of hunters not getting their trophies since Kewin took over for his now-deceased (2023) father.

Are you going to be able to actually get your trophy? I (and at least one other person) cannot get our trophies from my hunt in May, 2024.

Need a FB Gian Forest hog. The owner who took over for his dad in Central African Republic and where I shot one is not going to be able to secure the export permit for mine. Can't figure out how to attach image of mine here, but one's available.

Need a good African animal taxidermist. Mine has became in embroiled in a family crisis. We have mannikins, bases, hides/horns/skulls. A good tan's been done on the hides. 1) Full body black lechwe; 2) pedestal roan, tsessebe, and hartebeest; 3) shoulder, wall mount oribi and reedbuck. Need...

Jim Gibson, New Zealand Safaris (he also guides in Australia) is 100% in every way. He's honest, hard-working, knowledgeable, and whoever hunts with him will be glad they did. Mike Nicholas

Thanks 375 Rugar fan for trying to help on this. I followed the link you provided, but that rifle there is really no comparison to my Safari ABG other that they're both 416s. This probably isn't a great comparison, but it may be like comparing a Chevy (Cobalt) to a Chevy (Cadillac). I didn't...

Who are you to tell me what to post? Are you making an offer? Have a great weekend.
