    Hi all, I just spent a while browsing through the forum, and Im just wondering about a few things.

    First up, would an air pistol require as tight a security and scutiny set up as a regular pistol.

    Also, Im thinking of getting a ruger 10/22 for some modifying. Would it be ok to fit a bullpup stock or is there regulation on firearms lenth and firearms accessorys imports?

    Are high capacity magasines allowed?

    Also could I import myself, or would I be better off using a dealer. Basicly Id like to get it for as low a price as possible.

    In the order they were asked:

    1. It looks that way, but would depend (for the moment) on the attitude taken by your local Superintendent).
    2. Nothing to prevent you fitting a bullpup stock on your 10/22 (except theyre rubbish :) )
    3. Hicap magazines are allowed.
    4. You can do it either way, dealer tends to be more convenient, private import is cheaper sometimes, but by no means always.

    Make sure the paperwork (from both ends) is in order and you'd be fine.
