    If you succeed in getting BRP Guns to ship one to the UKicon, please let me know as I'd like one as well.

    Update: It looks like BRP Guns will now ship to the UK if it doesn't infringe the HMRC definition of a 'component part':

    Shipping & Returns

    Actual HMRC doc here:

    I don't *think* a Sten barrel nut would be covered by this, but could anyone give me a more informed opinion?

    Although what the total cost would be including shipping and import duties would be another matter...

    Cheers,
