    They're awesome.
    Watch out for shipping tho - can be expensive and some things will need import permits.
    I've a 10/22 trigger kit and mag release on their way from them currently.

    What do they tend to ping you when you need export permits?

    The filter on the site 'Available outside the USA' isn't 100% accurate though.

    So forget trying to order anything by Magpul or their own Brownells AR mags.

    You would need the DSP83, import permit and the end user cert and the other form. Its the price of the item as it needs state department approval.
    Anything under US$100 they will ship no probs, but once over the $100, you need a state department permit
