Question about Marstar

[Setzer77]

I've seen their website, and I noticed a few pistols I'd really like to have, such as a broomhandle, or TT-33 (or chinese type 54 pistol). I was curious if here in america we can get our local shops to have them FFLed here, or if it requires some ridiculous wait or what not? Anyone tried this, I'd really like a couple of those pistols, and their prices seem pretty decent. Also, what's the whole "restricted" and "prohibited" thing mean?

Seems to be quite expensive

Attn. U.S. Clients: please be advised that because couriers refuse to transport firearms across the Canada/U.S. border we must ship guns via air frieght (actual shipping costs in the $400+ USD range including 'high security shipment' surcharges from the airline). This makes shipping anything other than volume orders or high-value collectors' pieces not cost effective.

what's the whole "restricted" and "prohibited" thing mean?

So in other words, not worth it. I should probably just get another CZ-52...

Call me crazy, but

Also, what's the whole "restricted" and "prohibited" thing mean?

...probably means that such deals are "restricted" and "prohibited".

I think they can't be imported to the U.S. because they are made by Norinco.

If you want to import a weapon from another country
You need an ATF Form 6 / ATF approval and a dealer who can recieve the weapon.
