This discussion demonstrates at least a couple of points. If you are thinking of buying overseas, you need to read the rules yourself because any two of us may disagree as to what they say. Second, the rules channge, sometimes officially, sometimes otherwise. In the past, Larry's gun could come directly to the post office because it was valued under 2,000 and did not require a formal entry through customs and because the English could export using internatiuonal mail. My biggest headache came with a gun requiring a formal entry because the customs kids did not understand the rules but were sure they should be interpretted to preclude me from getting the gun. Be persistent. It is possible to do with very little assistance.
