Importing adjustable stocks
Does anyone know if there are any restrictions on importing AR type stocks from the states?
Re: Importing adjustable stocks
Two things you need to check. The stock you want ‘may’ been on the ITAR list, if it is, it’s a no go. Secondly, if it’s over the $99 threshold for ‘gun parts’ you’ll need to pay for an export license, which 9 tunes out of 10 makes in not worth it.

Ive just had a live chat with gun city in NZ and they say they can ship to the UK but I need to forward to them an import permit so they can raise an export permit? All sounds rather long winded and expensive.
Its a bit of plastic FFS!!!!

Re: Importing adjustable stocks
I've recently got in touch with a Norwegian company who are going to be importing a stock from the US for me. Exporting fees is 10% of the item cost, and the Norwegian company is charging 10% commission. It can be done, but with some charges.
What stock/chassis are you looking for, and are you 100% sure there aren't European dealers who already have it in stock (pardon the pun :)).

I'm after an ATI Hatsan Escort Talon 2 Stock.

The stock is discontinued so it looks slim that I'll get one over here.

Re: Importing adjustable stocks
Look on egun.de , there's a lot of AR stuff on there and no import license / duty .
