#1 Post by BamBam »

Has anybody done it?

Know they have lots of guns, but one or two of mine I like so much want to take them on holiday.

Will it not be cheaper sending them postcards & taking them out for ice cream locally?
What happens if they get airsick?

6NIA you will either need a written personal invite to a competition or a hunting permit. You can't just take one because you want too.
ATF just turned round my last 6NIA in 20 days.
