Any reviews on Mr X?

[1:66 twiste@d]

This is my first trip to SA. I don’t want to screw up and lose my rifle because the info on the permit wasn’t right. So it’s it better to pay for Mr X ?

Yes. 1000%. Or Gilbert at Africa Sky.

Don't think twice.

It's been awhile since I carried firearms through Johannesburg, but he took good care of me with ingress, connecting flights and egress a couple times.

Yes. And I trust you are using a quality travel agent that specializes in traveling hunters.

I hope so, my travel agent seems to know what she Is doing.

Been doing this a long time and the only two I know of and would trust managing guns internationally are Gracy Travel https://www.gracytravel.com/ and Travel Express https://www.travelexpressagency.com/ . I would never consider anyone else.

That’s good to know. I will look at them on my Cape Buffalo hunt in 2026. I read about a travel agent in I think maybe Wisconsin, but they never returned any of my calls. So I used my trusted travel agent, who does my other travels. I know this trip is insured heavy!

Mr X does a heck of a good job! Associated with Afton Safari Lodge who also makes the trip much easier.

We are staying there for the first two nights to get rested up.

Gilbert and Africa Sky are excellent.
+1 for @TRAVEL EXPRESS.

2 nights may be unnecessary, it is probably easier to just get to your destination hunt and ease into the first day or two.

Had an excellent experience with Mr X last May.
Money well spent!

My wife and I went to South Africa in 2021, my third trip. I didn’t bring rifles that particular trip, however, Covid testing requirements were in full swing. Mr. X did assist in navigating these protocols and it was evident he had great relationships in and around JNB. I think it would be money well spent for the peace of mind it would bring on a first trip to RSA.

I can strongly recommend

Gracy Travel & Afton house, Afton house does a great job of handling all firearms related situations.

[Rubberhead]

Yes but don't get so focus on that that you forget your US Customs Form 4457...

 

[TKessel]

Rifle permits is hassle free and worth every penny.

Mr X and Afton House made transiting through JoBerg a lot less hassle . Highly recommend. Worth the coin

Yes to Mr X and a good travel agent.
