Deiseboy Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 A friend of mine is returning to the Ireland(republic) next week by boat and I was wondering is there any legal issues with them bringing a scope for me? I know its ok this side but what about on the UK side? its 4-16x50 mildot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharlieT Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 My apologies, looks like you are correct. I didn't know the 4x was the deciding factor. Looks like your mate will have to complete a SIEL for the scope he is buying for himself.
