Import Tips

• Confirm interchangeable barrel system doesn't alter classification; document as single-shot sporting rifle with ATF approval

• Separate valuation mandatory for any included sights; use statistical suffixes for components to match total import value

• Avoid pitfalls like inadequate destructive device checks for large calibers; ensure Shipper's Export Declaration accuracy
