Except they look like military weapons which are banned.
I thought only military cartridges were banned? It doesn't matter because they're semi autos which are banned for hunting in Africa, except if you're Razor Dobbs (somebody pull up that video) with his 10mm pistol hunting buffalo. I guess if you're "somebody" with a corporate sponsor (MONEY!) you can bring your semi auto and hunt however the he** you want to?
 
I'd like one in .375 H&H... that'd be something.
Somewhere out there on the internet a m1 grand is being manufactured in 458 win mag.

A .375/.338 would fit in the magazine and chamber without modifications except for the barrel. Same with a .416 Taylor.
 
Semi auto shotguns are permitted for waterfowl and bird hunting.

I'll have to go back to the handgun laws for RSA. But I think, if the barrel is legal length, caliber and velocity are legal for the intended species of animal, a semi auto pistol can be temporarily imported into RSA.

I have seen 2 PH's carrying semi auto 9mm. Concealled, until their shirt road up when they sat down. They didn't say and I didn't ask.

The handgun regs were so confusing I just contacted Henry at Henry Rifle Premits and asked if my 44 mag revolver with a 4 5/8 inch barrel was legal back up for buff, filled out the SAPS 520 and it was approved for import.

I knew the PHs could because they live there. I guess I'll have to try a SAPS 520 for my 10mm Glock "back up" gun for hunting Duiker? LOL

Just make sure your barrel is a bit over minimum length. I measured my Magnum Reseach 44 BFR, it was supposed to be 4 5/8 inches and that's how I listed it on SAPS 520 then I actually measured it with digital calibers in mm. I was 1mm short of legal. I didn't tell and SAPS didn't ask or measure the barrel. SAPS did ask where the scope was. I said I use iron sights and Henry said something to them in Afrikaan, SAPS nodded and closed my gun case.

Well, my Glock Model 40 10mm has a 6" barrel with Trijicon night sights for hunting leopards and jaguars at night. Those don't weigh nearly as much as the buffalo Razor Dobbs was hunting with his 10mm, so I should be OK? LOL I'm sure Henry was telling the SAPS guy that his six pack of COLD Black Label beer would be waiting for him after work, so you got lucky this time with your scopeless revolver. Next time, who knows? LOL

I think Henry was telling the SAPS guy something else, like the forms have been approved now shut the damn case so we can leave or I'll call your boss.

I probably should have mentioned this earlier. A client of Henry had obituary changed his flight itinerary and arrived earlier than expected at 2 am instead of later in the morning. Because of his early arrival SAPS called Henry to help get his client's premit straightened out. I arrived around 4 or 5 am, SAPS saw my Henry permits form and told they had already called Henry for the other guy. Because I was transiting through to Zimbabwe I wasn't expecting to see Henry until I returned from Zimbabwe 12 days later. Through all the confusion I ended up with a 30 day permit from SAPS.

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

2,822fps, ES 8.2
This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.
