matt black Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 I am getting ready to start putting together my first blaster and was wondering if anyone has any metal sterling parts they would like to sell in the U.K. It's a long shot I know but if a trooper don't ask, a trooper don't get. Also still looking for a Hengstler. Rob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK_LEPER Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 (edited) I have some parts left over from a second kit (from Apex). Only thing that's missing is the speed bolt. This is a photo of the 1st kit I ordered: Working on an E-11 Edited January 13, 2011 by TK 4702 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt black Posted January 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 That blaster looks fantastic Jesse. I am a bit wooried about trying to import the parts into the U.K. Think I may have to go with resin. All the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK_LEPER Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 I sent parts to a friend overseas once before, and he was an officer of the law. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt black Posted January 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 I think England has some strange laws involving gun parts being imported. I was reading a thread by a member on hear the other day and it seems I could get into a lot of trouble if I import certain parts which is a real shame because I'd love to buy that lot from you. Or even just the legal parts. I just don't know what parts those would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamJ[501st] Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 I think you can get away with the stock. When I was thinking about building a metal E-11 I did look into this to the point I phoned the police and customs. The police's response was basically we don't know what's legal and what's not. Customs were much more to the point and said it wasn't worth the hassle and the problems which may result from jumpy postmen etc. If you like you can drop them an email and they'll tell you exactly what you can and can't import and have it in writing.

matt black Posted January 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Thanks Sam. I've done a bit of research and to be honest it sounds like more hassle than it's worth. I'd love to build a full metal blaster but if most of the parts will be resin then I think I'll just do the whole thing in resin. Or save up and buy a real Sterling. Thanks for help guys.
