My guess is they would be considered replicas and not allowed for import. For his price, there is no reason you couldn't assemble a dewat. Wood sets are available rather cheaply for the no1mk3 and the no4 rifles, as low as $30 a set. Add that to a sporterised rifle (normally $100 or less with magazine), and with about $30 worth of barrel bands, sling swivels and a buttplate, you should just about be there.

Good idea, I never thought of that. I'll look into doing that instead. It just sucks big time when they make such great looking replicas that can NEVER fire a round and you can use them.

Hey Jordan
I found that it was much cheaper to find a rifle with sport wood on it and buy the proper wood for it, they are much cheaper than buy a dewat and they actually work, which is a bonus for me as I am in a history group and we do the firing party every year for the leagion on Remembrance day. I allways found it crazy that a deactivated, non-working rifle cost more than one that works and is from the era, I will take pictures of the ones I have, 6 in all, one is a 30.06 that I got from the guy I bought my c60 from. Gary p.s. marstar has sonn for a reasonable price and collectors source has some but they are a little rich for my blood.
