Import Tips
• Obtain an import license from the ATF and ensure compliance with Federal Firearms Regulations (FFL) for all firearms imports
• Provide detailed serialization and proof of non-military end-use to avoid classification under military weapons headings
• Declare barrel length and gauge accurately; misclassification as short-barreled shotguns can trigger NFA restrictions
