I don't know law but I'm assuming with enough money, yes you can.is it worth it? Probably not
Well to try to answer The question. He may Be able to Buy it . But the Big question will you be able to Get it.
Made prior to 1898 would make it an antique ....might make it easier...???
All the Aussie stuff is shot out, those guys aren't going to let a decent rifle leave!
I was thinking that a importer/exporter of weapons might be able to do it. But for a individual very likely not. Australia has really ramped up their gun restrictions to being really onerous.
^^^ so bloody true.A 32-20 win92 was shipped to canada,via a shipping agent.Cost? $500 aussie dollars.
You made need a shooters licence to buy. Check out,

Have fun.
Unless its changed the usa end.....you will need the help of a dealer.
Most dealers here can help you out .........if not they usually know a dealer that will do it for you.
In Australia.
You can do it as joe blow but the red tape needs to be appeased both ends I believe.
Its not that hard as some make out but it will take time and proper procedures.
Its not gonna happen.Quote:

A Ruger #1 may be more cost effective. Just saying...

I made contact with an exporter in Australia. He said $200.00 AUS export permit and $200.00 AUS shipping to me in North California. I'd need to find some expensive rifles to make it worth while.
