Thread: if I was to get a Yankee mate to buy a stock for me over there...

Trying to find someone who will ship rifle stocks (as they regard them as part of a rifle) can be hard.
Check the US firearms regs very carefully because you do not want your mate or you to end up in jail.

Fixed that for you. ITAR holds all persons who attributed to the export liable. Meaning they can threaten you with civil action.
