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.

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
