Maybe you're going about it the wrong way, Michael. It might be simpler 
to rent one, which is not hard to do in this country. If you're going to 
buy one, they'll want a "permanent address" in this country.
You ought to be able to arrange with a suitable travel agent or 
"outfitter" for the trip, rental/use of a shotgun and various hunting
licenses, and so forth. (Outfitter is the term for someone who arranges 
and/or furnishes supplies for a hunting trip.)
At least then you wouldn't need to be concerned with what to do with the 
shotgun once your trip is over.
