Thread: Permit needed to import an A2 pistol grip?

I'm assuming you do, although it can fit other types of firearms, ie pump action shotgun.

For the import side of things at this end you will either need a Pol67E signed off by Joe Green or a letter from your AO stating its intended purpose is A-Cat firearm.

Can't someone bring in a heap for stock for A cat guns

Thanks guys.

All that paperwork required for a US $5.60 part.

FFS.
Bless all that bureaucracy.

For a $5.60 exposure give it a hoon and see what happens. You might get lucky and it comes through sweet as?

I didn't say it was a perfect plan

All joking aside, is that a likelyhood?

Surely you won't need to import one, there will be butt loads of surplus ones floating around with the new A-cat compliant stocks ?

He might if he is looking for a genuine A2 one, which from my understanding was an E part as screwed up as it is logic.

Yeah, got the factory Schmeisser hogue style grip on it at present, just looking to put the A2 pistol grip on it, so the lower (has A2 stock already) can meet service rifle standards.

How do you tell if it's A2. I have a grip not being used off my AR15 I used to own You could have it if it s what you need I "can't " use it now.
It's soft grip not cross hatch hard shiny one so probably not one of those dangerous ones

Yep.
They might even charge you years later.

On Target has A2 grips for $30, which is far less hassle really, I'll just have to wear the price difference.

Support a local vendor so that they're to able continue supporting our sport, especially one that is specifically geared towards B & E-cat stuff.
Use it or lose it, I agree $30 is frustrating when compared to the price in USD, but it isn't a big hit.

Every time I try to support local retailers they don't have or can't/won't get what I want. It becomes a waste of time to look after a certain point

E: things are improving though
