Please note all firearm related parts requires import permit. The police now only issues electronic (both supplier and custom) copy of permits post LV4 lock down. The average turn-a-round time is between 2-4 weeks.

Brownells:
No extra fee/permit required for part under $500. $6000 allowance a year without extra fee/permit. Will ship to NZ with USPS. The shipping is cheap but slow.

Eurooptic:
No extra fee/permit for parts, scopes, magazines etc. Firearm/actions will need export permit but with no extra fee. Expecting 4-6 weeks for export permit application. $125 flat worldwide shipping with USPS (but can be negotiated).

Has anybody be had any recent experience in importing mags from any other exporters (apart from Brownells)? I’m trying to import some
Before the current exemptions are removed by the pending administration. I usually deal with brownells but Unfortunately they don’t hold the parts and many other suppliers such as numrich no longer export.

Would be interested to know if anyone has found any other exporters that will export mags to nz. Import permits will of course be in place
