  1. Quoted from a similar thread on gunboards.com recently: " It's more than that Martin. It's whatever the cost of export permit. Shipping to and within the US, broker fees, excise tax and any other crating fees. I am at the start of this for myself for a gun from Sweden. My experience thus far: Export permit $86 Aluminum case $50 Shipping to US. $350 Broker fee - currently unknown Excise tax 3% total retail value of gun ~$25 shipping to Simpsons from port of entry (Chicago) $50 Import paperwork $200 for 1-5 firearms. Shipping to my location $50 Background check at local FFL $20 "
  2. You are going to need the services of dealer's who import arms as a specific part of their business. They will handle the business end of it, including customs duties and overseas contacts for a specified price. Be aware, it's not just US customs and the ATF you will be dealing with, other nations have their own set of rules and regulations regarding exports, these can vary from place to place, and often include export duties as well. It can be done, but it's going to be a much more expensive and time consuming process than a routine transfer between FFL's.
  3. Don't forget the concrete needed for the foundation. For a 24x40 slab, that will be another 9-10 yards. I always used 80 sq. ft for the amount of square footage that a yard would poor on a 4" slab, which allows for small differences in elevation and some waste. Figure about 21-22 yards to include a perimeter foundation of 1x2 ft. in addition to the slab. I always liked pouring on fill sand and gravel as a base, along with wire for reinforcement and plastic for a vapor barrier which will also figure into the totals. Admittedly I've been out of that line of work for many years, folks may have very different ideas about how slabs are poured these days. These estimates do not include anything for the cost of finishing, I have no idea what that runs now.
  4. It means if you check it, a pop-up will appear when you have personal messages, replies to a thread you posted in, etc. If you disable it, it will drive you nuts with other pop-ups asking if you want to enable notifications every time you open something up here. Kind of a damned if you do, damned if you don't scenario ...

  6. Nope. Nixon was going to be impeached, and rightfully so, and the Senate was going to convict him. This was ultimately why he resigned when he did ...
  7. The deciding factor for Nixon's decision was when Barry Goldwater told him that he (Goldwater) would vote for impeachment on several of the articles under consideration in the House. Nixon knew that if he had lost Goldwater, the game was up ... Also true ...
  8. So is this going to be the new chat, or what. Looks like the experiment is over, one way or another.

  10. Buying .357 ammo for just under $5 per box made the long wait worthwhile last year ...
  11. How about if she's not trustworthy, just take the phone and let her carry quarters around ...
  12. No, but I did participate in the rebate they had last year. I had pretty much forgotten about it by the time they sent the check, so it takes a while.
  13. AIM surplus regularly offers Anderson stripped lowers for $39, including today.
  14. I can't speak to shows around Chattanooga, but milsurps are not all that common in shows in middle and west Tennessee either. Your best bet is to get a C&R if you don't already have one, start combing the internet. Much better selection, and they are shipped to your door.
  15. Sorry, missed your post just now in chat. Scroll down the forums list on the main page, you will see the trader (For Sale) section there. Pick whichever category is applicable, open it, and start a new topic with your item listing. Good luck.

    Sgt. Carter didn't bring quite enough fairy dust this week ...
  22. For clarification, I meant the receiver date, not the barrel stamping. There have long been rumors of some metallurgical problems with some early 20's receivers, and I was wondering if perhaps yours might be from that vintage.
