Right, I have heard about that US issued firearms not allowed re-entry thing. That's how we ended up with all the 1897 shotguns from Vietnam.
It may not be an option then. I'll see if I can talk to someone at Irun guns, I think they do import / export and should know for sure.

Thanks for this info. Sounds like quite a hassel, and fee at every turn no doubt. Perhaps a motivated buyer would be willing to plug away at what is likely a painful experience but I'm not sure I'm willing!
