    Rifle Import from USA

    Looking for advice on importing a bolt action rifle from the US. As far as I can tell I’d just need an import permit completed but was there any other issues people had found that I should be aware of?

    This one crops up semi regularly.
    Run the search site:www.nzhuntingandshooting.co.nz rifle USA
    Maybe change the search term around a bit.

    Importing is no problem but many places won't ship here.
    Finding someone that ships here is the biggest issue.

    I’d be talking to Ken at 55six if it was me. He had some form of blanket permit for bolt actions and all the skills and knows all the right people in the right places
