hii guys, bit of a story here goes,my mother in laws neighbour passed away a couple of months ago and his house lay empty untill yesterday when his neice came over from the states to clear it out. she came across a luger with ammo so she she goes next door and tells my mother in law. next thing the wifes on the phone explaining the above to me, the neice is wondering if she can take it back to the states or would it be a lot of red tape. if it is going to be a lot of hassle my luck may be in. could any one advice on the neice importing back to the usa . thanks in advance.

My opinion is that you cannot import it since it is not coming from a registered US FFL and it is not in the United States (shipping purposes). My advice is hide the gun and not let it deactivated (but I guess denying the government from bastardizing a firearm is illegal in the UK).Originally posted by mr bridger View Post -
cheers bud things are looking good if it cannot be imported into the usa
, uk gun laws are a nightmare, upto 5 years in the big house if cought with a section 5 firearm without proper licence.

I believe it can be imported by a licensed importer. I suggest that she contact Simpson Ltd. http://www.simpsonltd.com/ They may be able to help her....I hope!Comment

not all that is gold glitters, eventualy got to meet the niece and invited into the house she goes into the cupboard under the stairs and produces the luger
it turns out to be a replica 22 slug gun. my luck and hers is out but my son's was in as they gave it to him at least it made someones day. thanks to all replied.

Been there, done that..more than once.
Long road trips sometimes involved.
Don't give up--you never know what's next.
