    Bringing back a Pelican Case from the US

    Hi, not a newbie been here for a while,
    used the search function but couldn't find a clear answer.

    Can I bring back a Pelican 1750 case back from the US, if I personally purchase it and bring it over, since it is significantly cheaper there.

    Now I know its not a firearm part, but it is primarily marketed towards storage of firearms, and don't want to get in trouble.

    thanks everyone

    As far as I know Pelican cases are usually used for high end cameras ( so you could argue) if anyone questioned it although I doubt illegal you could simply state it is for a new camera you purchased. Take away a few labels here and there.... problem solved just a nicely padded plastic container.

    ALL of my firearms are pelican cases I purchased from the states and had shipped over... never had to fill anything out or anything like that.

    It's just a plastic box, they really have no reason to give you grief.

    I know but this one is a larger type case


    I just want to be safe and not get any grief at the border.

    and i know it is a plastic box to me and you, but again, just want to be 110% sure

    Its a plastic box, as long as you declare its value in your declaration you are good to go.
