416SWNeed export licensed FFL
Does anyone know of or use a licensed for export FFL dealer in the USA? I want to import a rifle into Australia and I'm told it needs to be exported by an FFL.

ForrestBTry this link, I know they do imports -don't know about exports.
BSA Ltd. Let us know what you find out. We may need to export a 500 Jeffery to Australia as well. That will be a sad day.

BSA have replied that they only handle shotguns.
T Carr
Simpson have replied with prices which seem to be about half what G&H want. So I guess I will be dealing through Simpson.
Thank you both for your help.

416SWAn update
Have emailed Simpson Ltd again looks like $200, plus freight $100-$150 maybe less.
Have bought a rifle and now getting it sent to Simpson Ltd
Then I have to get my gundealer here in Aus to get an import permit and send original to Simpson along with puchase order.
Could have done import myself but firearm still needs to go via dealer in Aus so simpler for dealer to get it direct.
Time frame
2-3 weeks to get permit, 1-2 week to send to USA, 4-8 weeks to get export permit, 1-3 weeks air parcel post, 1-2 weeks for customs to send letter.
So in about 3-4 months

rifle should be in my hands
