    ATF Form 6A & Customs Help

    I'm about to start the process of importing two shotguns from Germany for a customer. He is a resident alien who left his hunting guns behind. Now he would like to get them.

    Have any of you fellow FFLs done this before? I could use some help.

    Thanks
    Jim

      Contact Rene at Speed Shooters and let him know I referred you. He regularly exports firearms and I'm sure he's more knowledgeable than most regarding import/export regs.

          Would that be SSI in Burbank?

              How long is your customer going to be here in the U.S. ?? Importing a firearm into the U.S. can take many months or up to a year. It can also be very costly $300 to $500 per firearm.

              Some firearms are also just not importable. Even some hunting rifles.
              Poke'm with a stick!

                  He has been living here for some years now and plans on staying.

                  He has two OU shotguns to import.

                      A Calgun'r named "gose" imported some of his guns from I forget which European country. He has posted about the process in a couple of threads...

                      You can probably even PM him for more details.

                          Great, thank you. Someday I will learn to use the search function in a way that narrows down the results to what I'm looking for.
