Is there any info on Estelle Nel Taxidermy Warmbaths South Africa? Has anyone used them before?
 
I have not heard of them but I have used TransAfrica taxidermy for years and they do an excellent job including my most recent safari.
I have mounts on the wall that they mounted from the late 1990s and they still look new and the tans have held up. In my view that
is a sign of quality
 
I have had very good work and service from Bullseye Taxidermy. Brian
 
They have had my animals for 21 months and still do not have all the permits in place, one excuse after another.
They have been paid in full, I do not know of a problem on my part. I advise for anyone to use another company.

I wonder if this is the sort of thing SSI could get resolved for you?

Paid in full and no permits and no date for shipment!?
 
The first excuse was the Giraffe hide took 18 months to tan, then the skin on the pedestal mount had to be permitted, then a CITES permit was needed for the Red Lechwe, now a CITES permit is needed for the Black Wildebest. Why were these permits not attained during the mounting process? Everything has run in series and months apart before I was notified of the missing permits.
 
Permits can be an issue for sure bu sounds like things are moving very slow.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
