IMPORTANT NOTICE

SALES AND EXPORT INFORMATION

To export our Miniature Revolver C1ST, we must ask our Swiss authorities for
an export permit, which will be provided to us against presentation of the import
permit received from our foreign customer, or an official letter stating that our
Miniature Revolver C1ST can be freely imported in his country.
We can accept orders coming from the following countries:

Canada

Our Miniature Revolver ref. C1ST is legally classified as a “Deemed non-firearm” in Canada due to the low velocity of the 2.34mm cartridge that it discharges.
Although the “Deemed non-firearm” legal classification has been applied to this model, it will still require an import permit to be issued by the Department of International Trade Canada. This is due to the fact that this model remains a firearm for certain sections of the Criminal Code and Firearms Act but is exempt from licensing and registration.
Call International Trade Canada for the appropriate documentation at 1-800-441-0622

 

France

Our Miniature Revolver ref. C1ST is not classified as a firearm in France as attested by letter dated 21st January 2008 received from the Minister of Defense as its ammunition power is less than 2 joules.
Our Miniature Revolver ref. C1ST and its ammunition can be freely imported to France.

Italy

We are waiting to receive the official attestation confirming that our Miniature Revolver can be freely imported to Italy.

Middle East Countries

We have experience in exports to several of the Middle East Countries.
Middle East buyers must ask to their local police or the import authorities to provide them with an import permit.

Switzerland

In Switzerland our Miniature Revolver C1ST is classified as a real firearm.
Our customers must ask their Police for a buying permit.
This is very simple for Swiss citizens.

We cannot accept orders from the following countries:

United States of America

Our Miniature Revolver ref. C1ST is not permitted to be imported into the United States.

Our revolver therefore, is not classified as sporting and is not importable.
