Renegade, what a laugh. Everyone understands the law but me? Ok - SHOW ME PLEASE. one caveat, don't give me your opinion, don't link me to international arms trafficking legislation that isn't used in domestic export.

Thanks Mongo, but no - only popping over to the US for a short trip. Rob why buy Leupold? - it is outside the price range (twice the price here)... The argument was about cheap scopes - I was stupid enough to buy into all of the US based reviews that for the price it was an incredible scope. As stat...

Call it a semantic game all you like, its a simple fact and it is what occurs every single day when interpreting legislation.

Good points
All good points. Specfically I was hoping to purchase a super sniper to settle an argument about chinese scopes (i.e. put my money where my mouth was). I have Leupolds amongst others, but in the lower price bracket many people in Australia are now buying chinese knock offs. As for legalities, I am w...

Returning
Returning from the US with a civilian scope that was purchased as such, has no ramifications. If it was a current or ex military scope then it would fall within the bounds of the export restrictions. The fact that the same scope is sourced and used by the US military does not actually define it as a...

Apparently
SWFA won't ship anywhere if they believe or know their products will leave the US.
Cash or not!!

Anyone able to help organise a scope purchase?
Guys,
I am heading to the US in a week, and need help buying a scope from a US supplier as I don't have a US based credit card.
If anyone can help please message me.
This is my final attempt to buy a scope without supporting chinese clones.......

Has anyone used a UMPS quick connect for a silencer? I would have thought it would be difficult to maintain tolerances to have it easily slide on and off and still avoid a baffle strike, unless you open up the holes throughout the can - which if I understand US law correctly means you need a form or...

Best Part of these threads.

Clones.
I am heading stateside in February and hope to grab a super sniper while I am there (might be difficult with shipping to a hotel room - but I'll figure something out!) There have been a lot of clones flooding my local market lately and some of them have been very high quality spurring some spectacul...

Alternative to FLV player
Guys you can also download swish and install only the codecs, this will allow you to watch .flv video files in Media Player or Zoom etc etc
install custom, then untick the middle box so you don't install the trial player.

I don't take it personally. but I do wonder about the intelligence of codifying a rifle scope as weaponary or encryption software as a restricted export!.

Review.
PaleDaddy, How did you go actually shooting the scopes? Given that SWFA won't ship outside the USA then I have no problems purchasing items that were legally made in their host country and I can LEGALLY import them into mine. Thus, we have a global marketplace where competitiveness rules the day. So...
