matt100 Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 (edited) Hi, is it illegal to import from the EU a replacement folding gun stock for a deactivated gun? Also what about leather or canvas slings? Gun components are an obvious no no but are these classed in the same way? many thanks Edited June 12, 2011 by matt100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Hall Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 It shouldnt be a problem, the guidelines state that stocks are exempt from control (I think it actually states woodwork such as Stocks). Anything that is a nonpressure bearing part should be OK. I say should be, because every item is diffrent, i.e. A Sten sear, on a post 95 deac these are welded into place or removed, so importing one may be an offence, on a Bren its freely removable.

diver99 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Not classed as same. What bits are you looking for. There will be loads of parts at Beltring, or a trip to Cinney may prove fruitfull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesdack1 Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 There should be no problem importing the folding stock into the UK as it is not part of a firing mechanism also it is not a load bearing component. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
