Technically you need a B709 to import mags or mag parts. In most states import permits are free so no reason not to get one. If you can, have the seller include a copy of the permit in the package, but chances are it won't get inspected. Bigger problem is finding somebody in the US willing to ship.
If you can order it through Brownells.com.au they already have importing sorted.
