Any problems? Any countries or airports to avoid with suppressors?
Do you suggest to leave attached to the rifle?
Any problems with Canada? Johannesburg? Windhoek? Maun? etc

Any other tips or red flags?

God Bless
 
These are the places I know of as problems, unless someone knows something else.

Canada
Australia
Spain

Most of the rest of Europe is fine. Most of Southern Africa is fine.

Most of Southern Africa is not fine. They are only legal in South Africa and Namibia. They are either illegal or unclear status in other countries regardless if some people get away with bringing them in.

Suppressors are illegal in Canada. Also illegal in some US states like New Jersey.
 
Don't even attempt to bring one into Canada. Same with handguns. Surprises me, but some Americans think they can pack into Canadakistan, or forget to take the handgun out of the glove box when crossing the border. That creates problems with entry into the country.

Illegal in the Netherlands as well so flying through Amsterdam (or any other airport) is a no go. I think Germany is no problem of transiting through Frankfurt for example.

Hello,

I saw your post selling left hand rifles. Do you have any additional pics of the .416 Rem mag?

Thank you.
