Lever Action

[JGH]

I see you can’t take lever action rifles to South Africa. Too bad, since I have a Winchester 1895 that I’d love to bring.

Two questions:

What’s the rationale?
Are there any countries that do allow them?

You can't take any type of automatic over there but I've never seen where you can't take a lever rifle. My PH said he's had a few come over with 45-70's

Good news. I thought I read on this site in the SA forum about this … the 1895 would be great to take
