I'm trying to get a pistol magazine sent from US as no one seems to have them here. Just wondering if we could get them shipped as per normal post or will it need paperwork etc? Thanks.
PS this is NSW compliant low round mag.

Has anyone gone through this process before? Seems to be quite a process to do

You import it but you need a dealer listed on the B709 and he has to collect it from Border Force. Probably not worth it for a single mag.

I am pretty sure you don't need a dealer for b709d, I have done it a few times till I moved to WA in 2018, the law hasn't changed so there is no reason the same doesn't apply. One the B709D, you don't even have list the dealers detail. When the ABF sees the package, they will send you a seizure notice, you just reply with release form and B709D attached. They will release it back to the mailing stream even. No need to pick it up. Dealer pick up is for firearms (plus things that require registration such as additional barrels) only

Just want to clarify, so first I'll just buy the mags as per normal and let the overseas shop ship them to me, and then wait until it gets held up by custom/ABF and wait for them to contact me asking me for the form? (ie. the overseas seller doesn't need to include the form in the shipment to me?)
