Buying gun from North

    I have read a few old threads on the forum regarding importing a gun for the North.
    Just to clarify if I wanted to purchase a gun from Tannyoky guns in Newry do I need a "Europass" and an "Article 7" form.

    So in short I just apply to my local F.O with the serial number of the gun as per usual and also apply for the Artice 7 and Europass.

    Am I corect in assuming this?
    Has anyone gone down this route since the new license system came into play?

    Thanks

    From a previous post of mine.
    You will need an Importation license from the DOJ.

    Fill it out as follows. Importation form.


    All these are obvious enough.
    • Date:
    • Name:
    • Address:
    • Telephone Number:
    • E-mail address:
    • Country:
    • Dealer/Private:
    • Full Name & address of business:
    You fill out Part A for the personal importation of a firearm as follows:
    • A-D = Your firearm falls under category C.
    • Type = Rifle
    • Make/Model = CZ 452
    • Caliber = .22lr
    • Characteristics: Bolt action
    • CIP Proof = Yes
    • Serial number = You fill that in yourself.
    Additional information that will/may be required:
    • Your license for the firearm. Copy front and back.
    • EFP. European Firearms Pass.
    • Dealer's license (that you are importing from) Copy front and back.
    • Dealers PULSE ID that is getting rifle for you. (if you are going this route, but not necessary if you are collecting).
    • Day pass to colect the firearm from NI dealer and bring across the border. Available from PSNI here.
    I think that is most everything. I'm sure if i've forgotten something, someone will remind me.

    When done e-mail it along with all the necessary attached documents to the address at the top of the page or fax to the number also at the top of the importation page.
