    Get a NI dealer to sponsor you for a visitors permit, takes around 6 weeks to process from PSNI.(permit lasts 1 year)

    Get Import from DOJ for Ammo, you need a CIP mark so you can only import Factory ammo (including HPS)

    sam@intershoot.co.uk will provide you with all the forms from UK side and you get Ammo import form off DOJ website, very easy just takes a few weeks.
