Maria at Hunter International outside San Francisco

I have used her a few times. Top notch!

I am actually happy with just the skull, would leave the cape without thinking about it.

How difficult is firearm transport?

I am looking at a hunt in Spain which looks like I’d have to make a trip to the jurisdictional Spain consulate for paperwork prior to the trip, well in advance. That alone would cost me money and days off….I’d be going to NYC….

Not sure what you are talking about here. I just finished an ibex hunt in Spain and used the outfitters rifle. I did have to fill out paperwork for the hunt with the Spanish consulate but it was all documented on a website with what I needed to do and paperwork to submit. So I did that and sent it in the mail. Had the permit issued via email within 2 weeks. Hardest part was having to get a few documents notarized prior to sending in the document package to the consulate.

I also have hunted in Kyrgyzstan a few years back and took my rifle. No problems as the outfitter had all the paperwork filled out and it took about 15 minutes to clear it with the police at the airport.

I’m referring to taking my own rifle to Spain. Maybe I’m not understanding it correctly but it appears I would need to do some paperwork at the jurisdictional consulate about 2 months or more from my departure date so I have the correct information to travel with my firearm.

Yes I believe you do but I do not believe this needs to be done in person. It should be able to be done at home with you sending in the info via mail. Check with your outfitter as he will know for sure.

Did anybody end up putting a group hunt together for 26? If so who do I contact about details? Thanks
