cock grouse 15 Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 They're good but be careful of obsticles in front of your target as it won't show up long grass or thin branches if you've got a fox sat in cover. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

geordieh 74 Posted June 21, 2014 Report Share Posted June 21, 2014 If your mate gets caught bringing thermal or night vision kit out of the US he will do jail time not maybe they will lock him up and he will be banned from entering the US on release ever again.Legally he is not allowed to buy it if he is not a us resident.Even if he is a US citizen he has to apply for a US State dept export license and for private use they are not granted Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They need to adjust the way they treat their customers, and think less about the revenue Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dekka 1 Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 I tried to buy a scope from america and was told but the vendor he could not sell to the uk or send abroad, I then contacted the department of security to clarify this and was told only items that are built for and to military designations are prohibited everything else is legal for sale there are lists with the designated items on them, but most suppliers will not take the time to consult these and just give the blanket answer 'not allowed' http://falconowners.myfastforum.org/about9134.html&highlight=customs so it might be worth checking if the item you are after was built for the civilian market Quote Link to post Share on other sites
