Importing and Exporting into the United Kingdom
For citizens residing in the United Kingdom an import license is
not required to bring a rifle barrel into the country. A prerequisite
is the United Kingdom Firearms Certificate.
We are required to get an export license from the U.S. State Department.
We have a letter on file from the UK Import Licensing Branch, referenced
below, stating that there is no import license required. This a
requirement of the U.S. State Department and in the past it was
necessary for individuals to get a similar letter. This letter fills
that requirment and it is not necessary for individuals to obtain
the letter. To see this file as a .pdf document - Click

Additionally we need a written purchase order from the buyer detailing
the purchase including a statement that the barrel will be used
for 'sporting purposes'. And a DSP-83
form must be filled out.
