The firearm travel agent that my outfitter in South Africa had recommended does not appear to be in business any longer. I would appreciate any recommendations ya’ll might have (Im in Minnesota, USA). Thank you in advance!
 
The two most often used:

Jennifer from @TRAVEL EXPRESS, they utilize Henry from rifle Permits. Great reviews.

Gracy Travel, recommend Shawn Kennedy, they use Bruce on the ground in Johannesburg for rifle permit process, he’s really good, just used Gracy Travel and Bruce.

I have used Gracy Travel for all of my African trips and will continue to do so going forward.
 
I use @TRAVEL EXPRESS and am very happy with them. I previously used Gracy and had small problems every trip from lack of attention to detail. Gracy’s people on the ground in Johannesburg are excellent but they aren’t providing any service on the ground Africa Sky or Rifle Permits doesn’t do equally well.

On my last Africa trip I used Jennifer at Travel Express. I was so impressed with her expertise that I won't be using anyone else.

Give us a shout, and we'd be happy to chat with you about what we offer. We'll be in the office Monday next week, but then closed for the holidays.
 
@franzfmdavis - Travel with firearms is one thing, firearms temporary import for hunting is another.

@TRAVEL EXPRESS for traveling with firearms and getting flights booked.
@riflepermits.com for what to do in each country you will be landing and hunting in. They can arrange a variety of services.

Here's a photo of Tony receiving that Shaw & Hunter award at the 1970 annual EAPHA Dinner Dance. Tony Dyer, then EAPHA President and Princess (Sunny) von Auersperg presented it. I also attended the event.

Good Afternoon,
How firm are you on your Dakota 416? I am highly interested but looking at a few different guns currently.

Best,
BJ

What is the minimum you would take.
