Is an M14 marked M21 reciever importable?

Hey guys/girls.

Quick question, looking to maybe buy a reciever from Fulton. Are the M14 recievers marked M21 allowed to be imported?

-Thanks.

I think the biggest hurdle there is... Will Fulton sell you a receiver in the first place? Maybe times have changed but Clint didn't like dealing with us canucks last time I checked.
My second bit of advice would be... Don't ask the internet... Call Fulton and ask them LOL
 
ya, come to think of it, I thought Irunguns recently listed an M21 whitefeather or a whitefeather repro? was a little while ago so not so sure.
 
If Fulton is the manufacturer, and they're not registered, it can't be exported. If Fulton is registered, it can be exported. Regardless of the actual exporter, the manufacturer must be registered.
 
I was under the distinct impression that you can get someone like Irunguns to export the gun. From everything I've looked at, it didn't matter if the manufacturer was a registered exporter, it mattered that the paperwork would be filled out to get the export permits for that particular firearm to be exported.
 
Don't know how it works for complete rifles. BUT for parts and controlled accessories, the manufacturer must have the "item/part" registered for export. This allows a third party export to take place. In abscence of that.... I dunno. And I am not up on the latest BS surrounding the goodies we can/can't bring across so take my comments with that grain of salt hehehe

Well I spoke with Fulton, who can BE exported, but just cannot do it themselves, and ordered one of their M14 marked receivers, which is currently on it's route to IRUNGUNS, so, hopefully, this isn't going to end badly for me.

It matters. Manufacturer needs to be registered under ITAR.

Nodak Spud would be very popular if they would just register.

Interesting, because I spoke with another export/import company about bringing in some parts from a company that I know, for a fact, aren't registered for export (I spoke with the VP of the company himself). The export/import company said it wouldn't be an issue, because they file all the paperwork for an individual export.
 
From what I have heard as well, it can depend on the part, on a part-by-part basis. Sometimes they'll allow an export for single-person ordering (One guy orders ONE thing), which can be done by some companies as a one-time export. This is different than a blanket-permit to export in say, large quantities. This can apply to non-essential things like, stocks, or bands, or buttpads or, anything really, that isn't absolutely essential to the firearm function.

It seems to really really vary depending on what it is, and who you talk to, and if they flag it for inspection or not, or, if it's Tuesday and raining....

That's kind of what it sounds like.

I think it tends more towards the private user non resale non re-export type thing too... if I'm buying it for myself, then I can likely get it exported if I pay for the permitting and paperwork. At least that's what this company told me (the export/import company)
