Importation of Big Game Trophies


Gunners can also assist you in getting your Big Game trophies back to the USA from abroad. Gunners will use the most economical avenues to get your trophies state side while assuring the trophies safe care during transit. We typically use Houston as the port of entry with ABX Logistics, USA, expediting the clearance. Advantage Fur Dressing at that point will pick up the trophies and dress all of the skins which saves the client shipping charges state side. Please contact Gunners well in advance of your trip to coordinate the importation of your trophies. Prices for importation vary due to weight of shipment , contents and origination of the shipment.
