Some goods news on ITAR regs

[TargetGuy]

Any new news recently?

 

[Wham-O]

I forwarded the info. to my Brownells contact and they in turn, forwarded it on to the legal department.
Still waiting.....

After still not seeing the change on the Brownells website I emailed them. They responded with this:

The limit has been changed to $500. We would need an end user statement filled out for each order.

To which I responded:

Your website still shows $100. What is the purpose of the end user statement? The ITAR publication made no mention of it. Is this a new requirement? I've never had to do this.

And their response:

It is a new requirement from ITAR, since the limit raised to $500.

The form contains this:

Am I missing something here? Is this not the most stupid thing you've heard?

Sure, it may be useless, but who the F cares? Sign it and receive your items. Simple enough for me.

Good for most items except barrels, cylinders, receivers or complete breech mechanisms

Sadly, not even close. Governments and bureaucrats exist for stupid rules and regulations. This is just more of the same BS, nothing more.
