Members I need your help please.
I am looking to import the Blasterfactory E-11 Boba Fett blaster to the UK. My worries is that customs will think it's a real weapon and destroy it.
The kit is mainly bare metal with a wood stock but is only going to be used as a display piece in my collection.
I will need to build it and paint it up when it arrives. I found a builder/painter in the states but don't think it will have any chance getting through customs as it will feel and look like a real weapon so might have to do that all my self
Do I need some sort of import documentation permit from HMRC to import it ?
I tried looking on HMRC website but couldn't find anything.
Anybody else tried to import replica firearm props which are display pieces only and not airsoft weapons?
