Import Tips
• Obtain ATF Import Permit (Form 6) and ensure exporter provides end-user certificate to comply with firearms parts regulations
• Declare precise model compatibility (e.g
• Glock Gen5) and material composition; undervaluation risks penalties
• Avoid common pitfall of importing with serialized frames, which may reclassify as complete firearms under 9302
