Hi,
I have a llama .380 and i have been seeing various parts in the US. I would like to know if i can get a friend to carry a 7 round magazine, firing pin, safety lock back for me from the USA in his baggage. If not then will i need a license to import the above as the price difference is massive.
Thanks
Jerry

Hi Sunil,
thanks for your reply. It is available in Delhi but the price is 6,500/= where as it is available for 800/= in the USA. They are willing to courrier it but then again the same problem when it comes to india.
Thanks
Jerry

Not worth the risk and hassle of getting rule book thrown at the airport for few thousand rupees. Play it safe unless advised otherwise by others.

Best

Very True that is why asking before taking any action i have 1 magazine but that is old and as i do not use the weapon that much as bullets only are for 250/= per bullet. As friend was going and he asked if i wanted any thing that is why i have asked.

The small parts should not be a problem, however as others have mentioned the magazine is a bit of a hit and miss affair... really depends on the person on duty at the airport and his interpretation/ discretion. As an alternative you can consider asking your friend to get you just the spring and followers for the magazines, as these are usually messed up by the chaps who fabricate them locally.

Cheers!
