    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...

    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. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Haven't read that document but it seems that the general rule is that anything that is not a load or pressure bearing part or supporting part is deemed OK

    If it's under $100 value, it only needs to be lodged with Customs and Border Protection by the exporter in the ACES electronic system before shipment. The AES ITN has to be recorded on the Post Office export declaration along with the exemption number and Bob's your Uncle.

    When the package arrives in the U.K. you may find that it gets opened on entering, as I found out when I purchased a couple of bayonets from Brian a few months ago. There wasn't a problem because Brian had done all the paperwork correctly with everything as it should be, and the package was resealed, to continue it's journey to me.

    A common thing, sometimes I think they just want to see the thing up close.
