After 20 years, I'm going back to South Africa this July. Bought the tickets with Delta back in February. Man, I had a hard time plunking down the money for those hi dollar tickets. This time, I'll have the little lady with me but she won't be pulling a trigger. I think I've got her bribed with a spa and massages. I went to the CBP office at the San Antone airport last week to get my 4457 for my rifle and other stuff, and I'm glad I took my time. The customs guy had zero personality and was just drawing his paycheck. He never even cracked a smile. As I was checking my paperwork, he didn't stamp/sign one of my forms. Got that little oversight corrected. Guess it's par for the course with a govt entity.
We also did the Global Rescue insurance thing before the 1st. Now I'm filling out the SAPS form to send to Henry and then going through my checklist. I have locks and airtags sitting in my Amazon cart. Gotta round up some ammo to start blasting away at targets so I can hit a critter. I can't freakin wait!!
 
Exciting! We look forward to the report!

The missus and I also did our global entry interview in San Antonio on Sunday, week before last. We leave in August.
 
hope you both have a wonderful and safe trip! wish I was going this year but next year will come soon enough
 
Excited for you. Have to wait for June of 25 for my first trip. I guess it gives me more time to save up for those tickets. Dang they are expensive.

Would you want a Ruger Super Blackhawk in trade for the HUsky?

Be careful of hunting Chewore South, the area has been decimated.....


Curious about this. I hunted Chewore South with D&Y in September and they did tell me it was there last hunt there.

Which outfits shot it out?
