Anyone with experience getting Mozambique rifle permit for Blaser R8 w/multiple barrels?

[xbr897]

My outfitter is relaying that Mozambique classifies each Blaser barrel as a rifle and the barrel-less rifle also as a rifle. Their statement to me is that since there is a 3 rifle limit per person, I can only take the stock + 2 barrels. I wanted to take 3 with me due the variety of game we're going after, but that is not looking possible with their guidance.

Does anyone have experience obtaining Mozambique rifle permits for their Blaser R8 in past year or so that can share how they approached it?

Thanks!
