The US Department of State and the US Department of Commerce are partners in qualifying the firearms markets that can be securely developed within the approved criteria of export regulations. The BATF contributes the same services and data base to assist legal importation of firearms related products into the North American markets. US Customs is the enforcement arm of all the agencies overseeing the import and export of firearms and munitions. Austin Sheridan USA works closely with all of these agencies to assure that all transactions are in compliance with the most recent regulations and also meet the high security concerns of today.
In cooperation with European regulations, hazardous powders and ammunition are pre-registered in Europe by burning rates and calibers in order to expedite distribution. These procedures comply with all UN, OTC, NATO, GATT, ITAR and NAFTA regulations.
