npettinato14 Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 I know that PTR imported quite a few of the BD 44 (PTR 44) rifles a while back, but is it still possible to import more? http://www.ssd-weapon.com/bd-44.html I'm very interested to know, especially since the rifle has already cleared ATF inspection. Is there a minimum/ceiling for the number which could be imported? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnsonlmg41 Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 That was a joint effort between the guy at PTR (who is no longer there) and another guy. There were a lot of hurdles to make that deal happen. It can potentially happen again, but the odds are slim with minimal rewards and a lot of risk. If you imported 150, don't expect to get 19K for them from 150 people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
npettinato14 Posted June 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 (edited) EDIT: I re-read what you said and that makes sense. They're going for 3,400 Euros online right now ($3,800). I imagine a similar price could be had here, though I'm not sure what the demand would be. Either way, I'm very willing to jump through hurdles. Or, if I can, at least import ONE and see the quality of the heat treating and see if it's better than the defective ones from 10 years ago. Edited June 18, 2021 by npettinato14 I re-read the responder's post and it made more sense the 2nd time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howdy Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 That would be such a cool gun to own. I've always been curious about the feasibility of one-off importation for a highly motivated buyer. Interested to see what you find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
