Legal advice
I am in England and own a l/h walnut tx200mk3 hc with a silencer/moderator fitted . Would this be illegal to bring with me if I move to California in the near future . Whilst it is fixed by screwthread and locktite it could be removed .

Must have nuzzle brake if semi auto. No silencers/suppressors in Kommiefornia. If you drink tea you are not allowed in Ca. We tossed the limeys out in1776 (LOL) Ojh darn it is an airgun come on over you will fit in well..

Silencers are perfectly legal on airguns in the US including in California. There may be an issue with importing one from outside of the country, I don't know for sure. There is no muzzle brake requirement. Last edited by Paul_R; 08-10-2018 at 7:09 AM.. |

Actually, be very careful about bringing ANYTHING resembling a weapon through customs. You are talking about a major deal going through customs and entering another country. You might have to look into it further. While perfectly legal in CA, bringing items (even legal items) into another country is a pain.

Yeah but at least you're not sitting in an interrogation room at the airport while it gets sorted out.

I thought any airgun suppressor had to be a built-in and permanently attached to the barrel. That's why all the airguns with suppressors sold in the US only come that way from the factory and you cannot remove them without damaging the rifle.

Educate me then. Show me a threaded barrel airgun that I'm legally allowed to purchase a suppressor for and install it here in Kalifornia.

Your attitude is all wrong. It's like you're trying to invent reasons to make something illegal. Find 'em yourself.

And the OP is asking for legal advice. If you think telling him to go ahead and bring his airgun mounted with a detachable suppressor into the US and through customs is sound legal advice, you're an idiot.
You're going to get him thrown into a federal pen while you sit back and read about his trial in the news from your easy chair eating popcorn.

Some of us travel the world with our airguns to compete as well as hunt, customs is not a problem it's how the gun is packed. That rifle is legal to transport here in California. Remove scope, degass the gun and pack in lockable pelican case. An Airgun "LDC" not silencer and can't be used on a firearm, it doesn't fit and won't work.

Says the ignorant member.
If there’s a legal risk or hurdles that need to be gotten over, one needs to know about them and understand them so he can make intelligent decisions.
