Exporting from India?

Post by MichaelZWilliamson » Sat Jun 16, 2018 12:53 am

One of the dealers has a couple of items I'd like here in the US. They're old US made, actually.

I can arrange import through a dealer local to me. Is there anything particular involved with export?

Export is allowed under certain conditions.The dealers in India should have an export license for that particular item. Are you in contact with them? Did you communicate with them?

I will. Knowing it's possible was the first step. :)

Thank you very much.

Please know that prices of firearms are disproportionately high in India due to imports being restricted and limited supply of quality guns. They can get even higher when it involves foreigners. Unfortunate but it is what it is. If you wish, you can share here what is being quoted and perhaps our members could weigh in. Good luck.

If this one is still available, I collect them, and haven't seen one with the bayonet before. http://hatiaarms.com/Category/ProductDetails/1028

I think this one is going to be difficult. As far as I know, firearms for which ammunition is made in India cannot be exported.

The law does not allow export of :
weapons of current and popular bores for which ammunition is available
in the country; and

Please refer to page 55 and 56 in the document attached.

Even though it was made in this country. :lol:

No one's firearm laws make any sense.
