Form 4457 no longer sufficent to export firemarms

The interesting part is allow a few extra hours to declare firearms to CBP. I have never had to declare my guns to CBP at JFK in the past and I have been traveling to hunt for over 30 years. All I had to do is have Port Police inspect then take me to TSA for their inspection. Now what??? We have to call a CBP agent to the ticket counter also???? I ve been in contact with Robert and Rosella of SSI the past 2 days. They are getting down to the bottom of this and will advise us. This is what I don't understand.. Since most of us already have a 4457 form.. Assist the traveler to complete a CBP Form 4457 to assist in an issue free return to the U.S.

I thanked him for addressing this issue, even tho we are not "out of the woods" on this, at least someone in government is aware of our problem and making an attempt to address it.
 
I did the same thing. Right thing do do.

Be careful of this Wolfen guy. 2 messages. Both trying to sell something. He PM'ed me trying to sell something and he PM'ed my friend on here trying to sell something. Fishy.

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob
