shred Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Heads up for anyone in the US planning to shoot overseas in the near future-- the ITAR changes coming down the line and becoming official around mid-March may change how things are done with firearms at US Customs. No official specifics yet, but it seems they're going with something more or less what Customs has been doing the past few years rather than the official ITAR/AES process (which I tried once.... major PITA that), but there will probably be some changes here and there. Foreign shooters coming into the US will still need to get ATF forms and whatnot I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perttime Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 (edited) This COULD mean that the rest of the world will have easier access to US firearms and parts. There's a lot of good stuff that don't have local distributors. Elsewhere there was some concern that Commerce hasn't been as prompt in processing things, as ITAR. Things take a long time, emails go unanswered, etc. Edited January 18, 2020 by perttime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyScuba Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 I’m no expert on ITAR but I’m not expecting much...if anything to change. State...Federal..Commerce Government is government and no friend to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
