GG375,

It certainly can be done, but it's a bit of a hassle in the US.

About 5 years ago I went through the procedures to have a shotgun from Australia imported to the US. The best thing I did was to hire a dealer familiar with imports to do the details. That cost me about $250 and was money well spent. All I had to do was wait as he did all the work. Then when the gun came he did the transfer to me under the US laws.

One dealer who does this routinely is Charles Schneible of British Sporting, Ltd. of Millbrook, New York. Here's the link to his website:

500Nitro may be right. I don't think there is an import duty or tariff on an item that originated in the US, but I can't say that for certain.

Hope this helps.
