    1918a2 bar

    Hi I own a 1918A2 Original BAR that I am looking to sell. Well I tried to do the same a few years ago but gave up. There are a couple of logistical and regulatory obstacles I guess.
    So here is the story
    The rifle I am looking to sell is in a very good condition.
    The rifle is located in South Africa, and is licensed there in my name, I live in the UKicon now, and have been for the last 17years.
    The rifle has been modified to shoot Semi-Auto (but can be changed back to selective fire by a good gunsmith or replacement retainer), to be licensed, Full Auto guns are not allowed in SA.

    What would be required to sell and ship this rifle to the US, for a start I need to get a Firearm export permit from the South African Police, but then I imagine a lot more is required on the US side.

    Please let me know if you can guide me through the process

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    You can't sell it in the US as once a full auto, always a full auto. They won't allow it in as a FA or Dewat...nor will Canadaicon...you might be able to sell the parts only on Ebay. The receiver will probably have to be scrapped.
    Regards, Jim
