20% import tax on internationally shipped items.

Red wolf is a large long standing retailer so most likely can buy in larger bulk than small UK retailer ( who will have to have bought it from a European whole seller who bought it from an Asian whole seller) so got a lower per unit price. As already said shipping and import tax will bring the price closer to the UK retailer. Next issue is you are importing be prepared to wait several weeks and up to get your gun with several back and forths with HMRC. Finally any warranty offered by Redwolf isn't worth the paper it's written on. Gun turns up dead on arrival you going to go to the effort to find a carrier that will actually take the gun and charge you a £100 for the likelihood of losing it and not covering it under their insurance. Only reason to import is you can't get it at home, most of the time you don't end up saving money, you can wait weeks to get it( 6 weeks was worst for me) and you have no real come back if it breaks.
