Hi Fellas,
What's the guts on import issues regarding bolt and bolt parts?
If I was to order something from PT&G like a one piece bolt and or bottom metal would I need an import license?

Only if it's not for an A category weapon, or if it will fit something that's not A. Although usually if it's a multi-fit item you just need to show you have the A-cat version, or get your AO to give Customs a call. That's assuming they hold it and ask in the first place.
Sweet.. cheers mate. I have downloaded the ITAR Form so I'll get onto it.
So do you just go ahead and order the parts and if customs pulls it up, worry about permits and stuff then?Quote:

Sweet. Thanks for clearing that up.. so you are saying trigger and bolt are fine unless you order an action as a whole part?
Also you cannot have an import permit granted retrospectively.
