Optics Import/Export question

[Longshaor]

Hi All,

A couple quick (and hopefully straightforward) questions from someone living in the USA.

Import:

I would love to get an L1 series night vision scope (the one that looks like a US AN/PVS-2). What are the rules on importing them to the US from the UK?

Export:

I have a mate up in Canada who would like a fixed (IIRC) 4-power periscope-type sight made in the early 1940s that I have access to. Can I just ship it to him or do I need an export permit?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers,

Atherton
