Thread: Anyone imported a scope recently?

I mean, you can mount them on crossbows too so saying scope=firearm component is not technically correct.

How far away is your licensing department from saying springs and screws are also firearm parts too (they go into guns!!!), so no importation of them without permits!

I guess you can try it? When I bought mine in, a telescopic site was considered a “firearm part”, even though it in no way would make a firearm “fire”. As said above, maybe now the rules have changed yet again? Confusion Raines supreme. A quick email to the arm’s office in Wellington will get the answer for you. Good luck��
