Purchase from Brownells USA

#1 Post by Ginger »

Hi All,

I am trying to purchase some bits form Brownells in the US, as even with the dollar / sterling as it is and with shipping its still nearly £20 cheaper than ordering it via Brownells UK, does anyone know how I can do it as it just tells me to goto Brownells UK.

Or is anyone knows where I can get these from in the UK for less that £17 inc P&P as they are only $6.99 on US Brownells, and I will just have to bite the bullet on the cost of the mag I am after.

No, you're stuffed ordering from the US site unless you have a US address to have it delivered to and they're quite cute about freight forwarders as well. Cheesed me off somewhat as I used to get their LEO discount which I don't get with the U.K. site.

That said, are these the sort of thing you were looking for?

Hi Sim,

cracking spot, but they are the rifle ones not the pistol ones, I gave the chap a quick call and he only has the rifle ones in stock. I could chop them myself and sand them down, but I am not that practical.

Being red / green colour blind this would be perfect.

Sorry Ginger, my bad. A mate does order from Brownells US and has it delivered to a friend of his living in the states. It's periodic, but would you like me to ask him to stick some of these on his next order? Wouldn't be quick, but you'd get them eventually...

I'm going over in November if it's any use :)

I may be able to get some and have them posted over but it's by a fiends family who aren't the best at remembering to post stuff when they should !!
