Exporting from USA to UK
Adrian,
You sound to be coming up against the same problem that I have encountered in the past. I tried importing a Marble's tang rearsight for a 336 Marlin and was unable to get anyone to play ball! Since the US authorities started to become paranoid about accessories, it has become increasingly difficult to import to the UK from the US.
Not only is there some paperwork to fill in, but there is a cost for the documentation and then a time delay.
If a US supplier is not already undertaking exports, they seem to be loathe to get involved.
My 'solution' has been to approach UK retailers who have arrangements to import in place and piggyback orders with them. Obviously, the retailer will require re-imbursing but that is only reasonable. The alternative would be to make a private purchase IN the US and then personally import. You may need to contact BATF or whatever they are now called, to clarify the position.
Rgds
