Additional Notes

What are “non-sensitive items”?

Items without firearm appearance or core structure, e.g. optics, slings, bags, protective gear, tools, BBs, batteries/chargers. Final decision rests with customs.

How to calculate power (FPS/J)?

Example with 0.2g BB: J = 0.5 × m × v². Heavier BBs affect FPS. Please specify your desired output power when ordering (e.g. Japan < 0.98J, Korea < 0.2J, Canada ≥ 366FPS for AEG).

Shipping carriers

UPS/DHL with tracking recommended; some countries only clear with specific carriers (e.g. Italy/Denmark often prefer UPS).
