Headshot08 36 Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 Has anyone sucsessfully bought a air rifle from another country that has been deliverd safely i have been toying with the idea for a number of months now but i certainly do not want to get banged up for trying. As long as the gun is in power limits and everything is it ok? Can someone shed some light on this or is it a no go area? Steve Quote Link to post

Steve Hello mate, There,s a few companies that will deliver to you in the UK, I know of plenty of people that use these shops and have no problems,, but there is a sticky point,, nearly all rifles produced outside of the UK will be set at a higher level,, so you must make the supplier aware of the UK,s limit, once you have sorted this out the companies I'm talking about mark the package SPORTING GOODS and this takes care of import duty,, here,s one of the suppliers I'm talking about from the good old US of A, www.BestAirgun.com hope this helps mate,, All the best, Rob.

jamiethehunter 0 Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 I would suggest you see if a local rfd will accept delivery of the goods for you and then get it chrono'd before you take it home. Quote Link to post

clubshot 22 Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Read reports on Shooting forums Of Gun's being delivered and others being returned Since VCR Bill - seems customs have been returning a few But does seem to depend where you live these days With today's poor exchange Rate and problems Pay's to buy from a Dealer these day's At least you can legally return it if it goes wrong BOB/R Quote Link to post
