Midway now Brownells?

The issue is not the Mother Company. I have never tried to order from Midway USA.

This is purely an issue of companies with stock in Europe not shipping that stock to other parts of Europe.
 
The workaround was to send it to one of my sons and they forwarded the package to me in Sweden.
A word of warning. Import/export laws can be complicated and extremely illogical. It's best not to ship any firearms related items between countries and better yet not to talk about it if you have.

No prohibited items at all. As a retired policeman I have a handle on the law. They were bullet molds, bullet lube, and the like. And I do know when to keep quiet. ;)

I was not attempting to dilute your issue as I have the same. I cringe at the prices in Sweden as associated with local companies. And the shipping issue to other countries is also a pain. My effort was to offer a solution, such as ordering directly from US companies that offer international shipping.

I follow you now.

It is something I have done, such as when I bought a nice leather holster, but by goodness, did I pay through the nose when it came to customs: an extra 40%.

If I can find a company that will ship, have no other choice and really need the item, I guess that will have to be my option, but not my first at this stage.

that was the old problem with midway in Sweden, they didn't have their own stock in the country

they got like a couple of containers of the usual stuff semi regularly but had to wait and batch up several orders together anfd get it from the states

their webpage wasnt properly translated, don't get me wrong, english would have been fine but instead they had it auto-translated by some drunk with babelfish. the actual webpage didn't work, you open one window and get something totally different.

If it is something particular you want maybe I can get it and ship it to you in estonia? should work with regular banktransfer no? isn't all the estonian banks Swedish:p

Thank you!!

A generous offer that I will bear in mind if ever I am really stuck, but I wouldn't want to trouble you otherwise. Still, very much appreciated! :)

Your not wrong, there! I'm glad your banks held, when there was the global financial unpleasantness! Could have made things a lot worse here!
