    Any issue / legalities getting a scope shiped from USA?
    Do scopes travel well by post? (damage)

    opticsplanet refused to ship me a pair ao Stiner binos a few years ago and more recently a set of Warne bases for my .223
    the also refused to send some accessorise for my Maglite

    best route would be if you know some one living there

    other website might not be so fussy

    Did not get any of the shops to ship to Ireland - was lucky to have my sister over there. Bought a scope, free shipping to her address and she posted the scope in regular post to me. Using the Bushnell on my .223 - very pleased ;)

    Have a Bushnell 6500 elite on my .223 its a fine bit of glass very crisp and clear got it from the uk. Have you tried Big Bass Pro Shop or Cabelas usually get some gear from them throughout the year have not ordered optics though.
