Airsoft at Customs from the US

Eldin · January 1st, 2010, 21:44

I am thinking about buying a Scope, Bipod and VSR-10 Zero Trigger Assembly from the US, but not know if they will be let through customs.

I would order it from Canada, but it's almost half the price from the US.

I found something on the canadian customs website saying you couldn't import Silencers or Magazines to Canada from the US, but they didn't mention anything about scopes, bipods or triggers. I've tried googling and researching it but nothing turns up.

So my question is; Would I be able to Import a Scope, Bipod and Trigger Assembly from the US?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Scope and bipod should be okay, I had no trouble with mine. But the trigger set, although legal, might run into trouble just because they see a trigger on it and get shifty. Someone with experience importing that part might be able to comment.

It should be fine, as many people order triggers such as the Zero or V from Redwolf all the time.

OP mentioned that you couldn't import silencers and magazines into Canada - for magazines does this only apply to the one's that have fake bullets showing in them, or just all magazines in general?

you can import any magazines as long it don't have fake bullets showing inside. Fake bullets will flag custom

The VSR mags are fine. I dont think there is any one that would mistake them for holding real rounds.

I have bought some sniper mag and m4 mag from china sites so there is no problem. Only problem is what deaf mentioned if mag have fake bullet.
And trigger assembly isn't a problem neither i know a lot of people who other V trigger or any trigger assembly from oversea.
