Nitro,

I thank you for finding that info as well. I need to follow up and make sure I have everything I need as well for my upcoming travel. I have been told that it is not too onerous but have not actually had a chance to confirm everything due to work load.

Just a follow up here that the micro red dot setup worked great on my rifle for the recent France driven boar, roe, and stag hunt. I realize I need more practice at shooting running game with a rifle but it was still great fun and my gear performed well.

Also, traveling to France from the US with the rifle was easy. I got my US Customs form like you always do. Then, upon arrival in Paris, I picked up my oversized case at CDG airport and went through Customs. I actually stopped at French Customs and told them I had a rifle and asked if they wanted to see it. He was very nice and asked to see it but I think it was mostly just out of curiosity to see the rifle. Then, flying home was straightforward as well. Just be extra clear when checking your luggage that there is a firearm in that particular checked bag so that it is flagged appropriately. I use a Tuff Pak case some it looks more like golf clubs than a rifle and works great.

Well done.

Yes the Euro running shoots are something else. And do need some practice. I admire many of these guys ability on running shots.

Good solution on the modification of your rifle. Still need to create that new thread.

Good to hear the carrying on the rifle went so effortlessly.
