Bringing rifle back to US from MX hunt

Can anyone answer - is there an ATF form to have approved prior to going to MX to bring a gun back into the US after a hunt?
Yes, there is a form to be filled out for customs at the boarder and a permit from Mexico that has to be bought and filled out. Plus Mexico will want to know the number of shells you are bringing in.

Form 4457 - Certificate of Registration for Personal Effects Taken Abroad

NOTE: To get this form certified - which you must - you must present the firearm to customs in the USA to verify the serial number and type, as well as your identity. You CAN NOT do this After the fact. You only have to do this one time for each firearm.

This is a a big and important deal. Don't screw it up. You'll have to make an appointment in advance. They don't like people just showing up with guns!
