    Re: Importing Manners Stock & DBM Into Australia? Thomas Manners I have one quick question now for you. You are now supplying Lightforce Australia with Manners Stocks. To do this you would have needed a Export Permit to do so, which is the cost your end. Under this Export permit you could...

    Gunsmithing Objective research on Barrel Break-in procedures

    Re: Objective research on Barrel Break-in procedures Interesting thread indeed. My cleaning routine and barrel breakin has changed greatly since purchasing a Hawkeye Borescope. I was over cleaning dramatically, as too will be 90% of people. As for barrel breakin, I will still do it. There...

    Importing a rifle into Australia

    Re: Importing a rifle into Australia Importing a run of the mill rifle from the US, like a Tikka is a waste of money. It will be more expensive than buying it here in Oz. If it were a secondhand full custom rifle, or maybe something like a TRG then yes it is worth it. I imported a Coopers...
