Does anyone have a contact / importer who brings in guns from Germany? I've seen something I quite like but need to work out how to get the gun imported into the US.

Many thanks.
 
Mr. Chris Sells is Heym’s agent in the USA.
 
Pretty sure Steve Bertram (Bertram & Co.) imports from continental Europe.
He's brought in a lot from England for sure.
 
I know Steve Bertram imports from the U.K., not sure about the continent.


Ha! Looks like we were thinking along the same lines, Huvius.
 
Lots of ifs.

The person has to be willing to sell it to you in a foreign transaction. This is not super common outside a limited number of people.

If it is at a big dealer like Frankonia it won't happen, they don't care.

I am in Germany I can help you with the German exporter, as he lives 40 miles from me. The American import side is the harder thing.

I don't know what he charges for an export, last time I asked I think it was 500 Euros for the first piece and 100 Euros for each piece after that.

There will be things that German dealers and inviduals do not want to export. Things that are hard to find, like old British guns, Mustgraves, and some German made modern safari rifles that aren't commonly available will be more of a challenge.

Could you elaborate a bit further on this? If there is a willing seller and a willing buyer?
 
https://www.egun.de/market/item.php?id=19976738. This Frankonia military Mauser conversion would not be able to be imported into the USA as it likely has a military background.

You would be stuck.

I have also known people that have bought things here, and not gone through the proper channels or had a bad actor dealer and it never got shipped.

This one maybe might be helpful. Ramstein air base is not very far. Between Germany and France it is very helpful, but I don't know about the USA.

Contact him, I suppose they speak englisch.

 
Waffen Bock speaks English.

He is the primary exporter here.

You might have edited your post on the PH in the Bubye. I know the PH and is a wonderful person and a fmaily man and runs a succesful business in Zim and just doesn't want the attention that the internet offers, the ugly kind.

Hello,

Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.

Thank you for your time,

Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
