And Relics All firearms made before 1898 are considered to be 'Curios and Relics' by the BATF. This means that importation of these firearms requires NO paperwork from any US customer. C&R firearms may be sent directly to the customer's home. Expect these firearms to reach you in around 10 days. |
All of the firearms advertised on our website are available for export around the world, a very straightforward procedure with minimal paperwork. All
that is required (for the US) is that you obtain an import
permit (ATF Form 6, Part I), and contact a licensed firearms dealer
to act as your agent. An import permit may be mailed to you from the Federal
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, on 202-927-8320, or downloaded
from their website here
or from ours here. The form
requires some simple details on the specifics of the gun, such as serial
no., caliber, maker, etc. as well as shipping details. An approved permit
is then mailed out to the applicant in around 3 weeks. As soon as the
permit is approved we are able to post the firearm, air mail to the USA
and Canada usually takes a week. Canadian citizens will find the process a bit simpler. Assuming that they have a current PAL or FAC, all that is required is to pick up the gun in person from customs. No import permit is currently required for Canadians. Finally, the gun must be registered for a $25 fee. All other paperwork will be handled by us, to make the transaction a simple matter. And in a few weeks time, your firearm will be mailed to your local dealer. If you are not from the US, please email us for details on importation into your country.
