Re: How to import Double rifle

Quote:
There is a form on the BATF website that you can have a dealer fill out. In a couple of months the BATF will give you a permit and then you have the rifles shipped to the dealer. On arrival, you fill out a 4473 and they are yours.
That will work for a shotgun, but for a rifle (doubles included) - the person you use to import the rifles will have to be registered with the DOD under the Arms Export Control Act, and I doubt you will find a local dealer who is. You'll need a licensed importer (type 08) to bring your rifles in for you.

Hello DoubleD
Thank you very much for your advice. I will get the Form 6 approved and get them in as accompanying baggage.

Aziz - Are you an FFL holder? If not, you're asking for trouble with the US Customs if you try this. It's a good way to lose your guns.
To be legally imported, the guns have to be imported by the FFL holder and licensed out to you... trying to do it the other way around will not be looked upon very favorably by US Customs.
