Oh yeah anything resembling what the military uses are usually thrown in the 'need a permit to import' because retailers can't be bothered with it.

It's a classic case of 'better safe than sorry'.

Take what Ronan say with a grain of salt.

And Tasco is FAR from military grade. It's not even airsoft grade for the most part.

I think you mean

"Disregard everything Ronan says, don't expose him to direct sunlight and don't get him wet, or feed him after midnight."

:)

Yea, Go to Canadian Tire. They've got that one for like 30 bucks. Or check out Cabelas or Whosale Sports, they'll have better optics.

I have never legally imported any real gun parts from the U.S.

The export bullshit is just ridiculous.

I rely on others to import, or find other avenues to acquire what I want, just like most folks.

Thread cleaned.

Enough with the pissing contest. Ronan, not everything on this forum is about you, give it a rest.

ACOG is like a RDS(Red Dot sight). You should just get a EOtech there good.

ACOGs are supposed to be magnified optics. Some clones came out that were red dots with an ACOG -looking body, but most ACOGs are magnified.

And for $70... maybe used or a really crappy red dot one on ebay.

Easy answer- Yes.

Ok Answer- As long as it's not the real EOtech sight or Tasco because your just wasting your money and it will probably get seized, but you can buy REPLICA's of the sights on Canadian sites or Americian Sites.

Ok, I'm really not one for ragging on noobs, but dude, you really need to read more and post less. I've read a lot of your posts so far where you're "giving advice" and it's clearly obvious to pretty much anyone except a noob you haven't the slightest clue of what you're talking about on any subject you choose to chime in on. The only thing you do is give out incorrect information that will confuse noobs who are often only slightly newer to airsoft than you are.

If you don't know what the hell you're talking about, then stfu and let people who know their shit dispense the advice. And I'm not just talking about your replies in this thread. It applies to almost every damn post you've made on ASC so far.
