JohnWilson Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Hi all! So looking at buying new weapon and have found it at RedWolf for £100+ less than UK prices... Has anyone here bought a RIF from RedWolf? If so did you get charged extra by UK Customs? Did it arrive OK otherwise? Wanted to see if it was worth buying for them. Thanks!

JerseyRider Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 From what i have heard it isnt worth it With import cost P&P and possible Customus holding charge by the time you get it you have almost spend that £100 saving Also you dont get the support that you if you bought local (say if you have to send it back you will get hit with the import charges on the return But thats just my opinoin Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters Matt! Posted July 28, 2010 Supporters Share Posted July 28, 2010 where are you importing from? depends as the postage will be HUGE! and customs don't really like any form of weapon going through. its worth spending the extra and buy local.

JohnWilson Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 RedWolf - Hong Kong. I just bought a suppressor from them and it was quite cheap and quick. But guess full on weapon wouldn't be quite as simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteJC21 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I got a quote for a Tokyo Mauri P226 with a spare mag. They wanted $162 plus $32 for airmail shipping. Total approx £123. No idea if thats good value for that weapon?? Also would it not just get seized by customs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
