right now waiting on Turkish Airlines to decide when to send my trophy's to Chicago this is the second try at getting them on the plane so finger crossed. I know next year I will not even consider African Trophy Exports as this was the second year they never responded and 2 years ago they never...

I was told by a person that knows him and he is in his 80's so to move probably not happen

because of problems over the last few years I have started using Hammer Bullets for the last 2 years. always in stock and accurate and always work for me

a person does not need a college degree to be trained how to do a job

always the 3 sss's

so there to be no question by SAPS I printed out the form and did a white out of te 5?22 date on the bottom and then copied it no issues with CBP or SAPS

So Dak Sports in Mitchell, SD has one in stock I think 1699 and also a Maple stocked 308

a few weeks ago I sent 2 requests for shipping quotes to African Trophy Exports and like last year never heard back from them, real quality company! but, they handled a dip and pack for a friend last month but they were handed the product from the taxidermist

hope you both have a wonderful and safe trip! wish I was going this year but next year will come soon enough

thank you I stand corrected, Airlink required locks on ammo boxes when I traveled last year

airlines in the USA require you to put TSA locks on your ammo box, just tell them at check in you have ammo in a TSA locked box, no issue. I have a Pelican case for ammo and if not flying after I get to SA I will get the lightest plastic ammo box to go into my luggage case no need for a heavy...

airport, Coppersmiths does a great job

only one word for that room "FANTASTIC"

I contacted my home owners insurance (American Family) and they had a company they del with do not remember the name, a 250,000 policy was only like 85.00.

well just found out Chicago is the first stop for Turkish and my stuff will not be flying anywhere else so that is the reason it has to clear agriculture there. Laura says every crate of animals finished or not have to clear ag whether or not you think it does when it first lands. if it is...

mine was not even shipped yet, will ship on April 6th, Laura at Coppersmiths was just letting me know about agriculture clearing times 3-7 days and that Chicago charges storage after 1 day, but when my last one flew Delta and landed in Atlanta then on to Chicago then there were no Atlanta...

just found out Turkish does fly to Atlanta and if that is the final destination then it clears agriculture there and no storage, but because Chicago was the closest to me that is the end location so it sits till it gets clear, kind of wish I would have just left the Buffalo in Africa, oh well

I do not know that, Chicago was the shortest drive if I wanted to pick them up but found a trucker who will do it for 400 to my house in So Dakota

according to Coppersmiths in Chicago, if the shipment lands in Atlanta it will clear there with no storage fees and will travel on to the next airport. if (like mine coming on Turkish Airlines) they land in Chicago and have to clear agriculture there (mine are all finished product no primate)...

according to Laura at Coppersmiths she said they have to clear agriculture inspection at the Chicago airport not being sent to quarantine facility before she can pick them up. she handled my finished product last year with no issue so I think she knows what she is doing

I have 3 shoulder mounts, 1 Zebra felt lined back skin finished, 2 warthog euro skulls finished, and 1 cape buffalo euro mount finished coming to Chicago on Turkish Airlines and Laura at Coppersmiths there say they will have to clear agriculture before they can pick them up at 348.00 per day...

unless they have to wait for US agriculture has to clear

Africa Sky, Mr X and Henry with Travel with Guns are only 150.00. Travel Express I believe is now handling permits also

try not to use Turkish Airlines, use Delta for your hides coming back to the US as they will land in Atlanta and clear agriculture inspection there then travel on.

3 shoulder mounts 3 euro 1 back skin 3100.00

no birds or primate just 2 finished euro mount warthogs, she said that was no issue

Chicago Chicago

last year I used Delta to bring mine to Chicago and this time it has to go Turkish because I have a Cape Buff coming back) as the other carriers will not ship any BIG 5 animals but the others animals are ok. I do not know how long before they ship, mine is being sent to them this week and...

they should have the answer by tomorrow, I just did the same thing with Badger cargo this past Monday and got notification all was well Tuesday

I think that is a good idea, was just getting a little bit in a hurry. thanks

yes

I am going to make a back board in the shape of Africa and will mount my Zebra and Kudu on it then onto the wall when they arrive in the next few weeks (I Hope) being sent to Turkish Airlines any day now. what I am asking is if anyone would be so kind as to give me the height and width of each...

decided against paying for insurance, did not like the idea of having 7 days after receiving to take pictures, take mounts to a taxidermist 100 mile plus form home to get an estimate for repairs. thanks for the reply

I agree I also think it would be blaming each other

thank you

unless you are taking another flight after Joburg just put your ammo in one of the light weight plastic cheap ammo boxes and well pack it from damage and do not forget the locks that way you can take more ammo, steel boxes are to heavy

+1

you should try standing a few away from 2 of them coiled like I did, that gets thing pumping.

hello Jennifer, just to be sure we spoke last summer about you folks to start handling SAPS permits and just to be clear are you now doing that so you are a one stop service? thanks a lot and here's to a great coming travel season. Jim

thank you, she is doing very well and the first one 3 months ago went very well also, I think I will have to get your audiobook for her as she is not much of a reader anymore, might just be a good idea as a gift for our 50th anniversary since after all these years I have one heck of a time...
