ANy problems with domestic carriers with my rifles? Joberg to PE. Used to be ok, just dont know if anything has changed.

Depends on the airline, aircraft type and whether there is a member of staff licenced to handle firearms at the airports concerned.

The best thing you can do is have your travel agent and/or airline confirm in writing that they know you are travelling with firearms and get your outfitter to check/confirm locally as well.

With a name like that, I assume you're a biker? - I have a 1981 Honda CB900F

Harleys rule you know that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh no, I was thinking of Hayley....... Harley's must be those funny two wheeled vibrating sex toys with some kind of leg stretch torture attachment.



Get yourself a proper piece of two wheeled engineering!

Two trips, no problems. Same drill but less hassle than Jo'berg. The trick is getting back and forth from international to domestic and back to international.

You'll be glad to hear that Joburg International (or whatever it's called this week) and domestic arrivals and departures are now in the same building and it's a doddle.

Regarding actually travelling with firearms: Staff members now have to be licenced to transport them between building and aircraft and if there's no correctly licenced member of staff on duty (esp at the smaller airports) the airline is not allowed to accept the firearm for travel.

Regarding aircraft type, if there is access between cabin and hold whilst the aircraft is in flight, firearms may not be carried on the aircraft.

I'd highly recommend checking aircraft type before travel and having the fact you're travelling with firearms entered into the comments section of your booking and taking a hard copy of the booking with you.

Also ask your outfitter to confirm everything is good to go at the destination airport.

get a cold woman on a harley and give her a few mins on high revs and she'll be ready to screw your brains out all night!!!!! try that with a rice grinned and some of use could use leg stretching

I admit I might be slightly vertically challenged but my legs fit perfectly between my arse and the ground..... and as little as my legs are they got that way from walking too many miles after buffalo.... I used to be 6 foot 3 when I was a teenager.

STEVE we all know that don't stack shit that high so you could never have been that tall

Believe it or not, both my Grandfathers were over 6 foot tall.... one was 6 foot 3 or 4.
