Hi all,
I'll make this brief, as I'm totally pissed off!! I'm 2hrs away from boarding for my buff and PG hunt in SA. The SAA Manager (a self-confessed hunter) asked if my ammo was factory or hand loads. I naturally said hand loads. He then categorically stated reloads are NOT allowed on SAA flights!!
I asked where in their regs does it state and clarify that "factory" ammo is only permitted. He declined to engage but said it's always been their regulation. I replied BULLSHIT!! I flew SAA to Zambia last year and it was ok. He did not provide an adequate reply!!
Be warned!! If SAA ask about your ammo at check-in - it's FACTORY loads, ok guys?
