United States exclusions

De-activated current calibre weapons cannot be posted to the United States. Although legal for Leons Militaria Ltd to export them from the United Kingdom it is against U.S. Federal Law to import them into the United States. However this generally does not apply to antiques/obsolete calibre firearms even in full working order. We regret that we cannot be held responsible for anything impounded by customs. 
 

It is the responsibility of the buyer to do the appropriate Due Dilligence checks with the appropriate Customs dept.
