ordering overseas

i'm planning to order a Mp5 rail and a grip. should i put them in the same order? or should i separate them to avoid either of them getting seized?thanks

Why would they get seized? Those arent restricted items, and Doing two orders would mean double the price in shipping.

well just in case either of them gets seized for whatever reason... i might get a really anal customs officer? i don't know =(

He means an MP5 lower receiver. Which in a perfect world should get through fine. But it would most likely be seized (but if you fought for a few months you'd eventually get it back).

Oh, i was assuming it was a claw mount and Front grip. If it is a Lower receiver is would probably get seized as styrak said, as would an upper.

well the lower receiver is plastic and in the real gun thats not where the bullet projection occurs so it should be ok.(or so i hope)

But the problem is the Customs may not know that, and you could possibly get a really mean one. Why not just find in on the classifieds? your age verified.

ive had an ad for the longest time and nobody has gotten back to me on those. so yea... also the price on the classifieds is about 4X the price on the websites (without shipping too)

Steven · September 30th, 2009, 01:05

Stupid question, but do you bump it? It could just be lost in the heaps on ads. If so, try contacting a retailer.

cerealmaniac · September 30th, 2009, 01:08

of course i bump it ahah. and yes i did contact a retailer the 4X price are the replies i got.

If you read through my thread concerning bringing the CA parts in for my MP5K, you'll see that they made it through fine, and that on the MP5 series, the upper receiver is restricted, not the lower.
