Import Tips
• Obtain Federal Firearms License (FFL) and comply with ATF import regulations including Form 6
• If imported with telescopic sights, separate components for valuation per statistical notes to avoid duty miscalculation
• Provide detailed invoice specifying centerfire caliber, value per unit, and end-use as sporting/hunting to prevent reclassification
