Can a South African permanent resident import temporary a firearm for hunting, similar to the procedure required for visiting hunters from oversees?

Arrive with the rifle from let’s say Germany, present return ticket plus hunting invitation plus the paper from German customs and return with the rifle to Germany not later than 6 months after arrival in SA.
 
This is a new one. Wish I knew.
 
Would need to ask SAPS but as you might know that would be a waste of time really.

I did such on a 5 year Work Visa not quite the same but close ?

Most of my hunts are solo — just me, my rifle, and a good map. Sometimes I tag along with an old buddy for a week in Zimbabwe or South Africa, but more often than not, it’s just me.
Big fan of classic hunting — bolt-action rifles, old-school tracking, and taking the time to really be in the moment.
Just did a podcast, check it out if interested!
