African Safari Big Bore Experience
https://northamericanoutdoors.org/shop/
If you are planning a trip to Africa, or just want to experience the firearms used for hunting “Dangerous Game” or the “Big 5” – (Elephant, Lion, Rhino, Buffalo, and Leopard) this experience is for you!
Many people do not purchase big bores like they used to. Regulations getting the equipment to Africa are too cumbersome. You cannot travel with firearms like you used to. It is much easier to rent the guns from Professional Hunters (PH).
