    Trying to understand those adverts......Ads display product or services provided by advertiser...so ....where can I order some of those scantily clad types....? And will they actually ship them or will they claim it is illegal?

    But like you shop I can't be arsed with most firearm parts as it's a bit of a mine field with some parts trying to work out what's legal etc.

    I have a buddy in Kentucky who just sends me things. For similar reasons you're going through, YouShop is a royal pain.

    Thanks guys lesson learnt. Yes you can order from the diminishing number of retailers who will accept PayPal or an international credit card. The problem with this approach is that they don't understand the cost of freight or what a padded envelope is so you pay $50 for something then the same in postage to get it here. Which was were {insert name of offending company} came in, reasonable shipping and pretty good service well used to be!

    Yes but by the time you pay the domestic us shipping (sometime free), the us sales tax and the pooshit fees then you are up to $50 anyway.

    Visa pressy cards get around most issues with NZ credit card.

    People I know have been using a virtual card for US purchases and on aliexpress etc so if its hacked only whats on the balance is taken so not problem if its your main card and you control the balance available on the card .
    I have not used this system but might be worth a look......

    I honestly don't like ARs.
    I prefer my knives and guns somewhat traditional.
    Each to their own.

    Firearms fashion is a very individual thing so I respect that but to my way of thinking the AR design is older than transistors and man landing on the moon so it's fairly traditional to me.
