Seems all the local stores, and even not so local are out of stock on the Sigs I want.

What kind of hassle is involved in importing from the US?
Worth the trouble/expense?
 
Nothing fancy, just a 226ST in 9 and a 220ST in .45
Nobody has them in stock, and answers for "when?" range from "pretty soon" to "not really sure".

OrdnanceOutsellers has em both in stock, and reasonably priced, so I got to thinking about just importing them...
 
Yeah, called them today

they were very cheerful....cheerfully informing of the fact that they were all sold out :(. Expecting more Sigs with the next shipment.

They were actually the most helpful out of all the dealers I spoke to.

I'm still hoping to do business with them, importing seems like it will incur a longer wait simply due to the cross-border processing wait time.
 
Talked to Questar about import of some carbines from the US. He told me that those might be on the import restriction list by the State Dept. I was not able to get any definitive ansvers from the State Dept, Customs and Border protection and only ATF told me 100% sure that they are not concerned with export. Are any carbines restricted to export from the US? Where can I find more information?
