As MRCrowley said, get them delivered to a mates place or someone else you know. Its just plastic bbs, they may at most confiscate them but ive not had probs importing airsoft bbs from New zealand to Australia in the past. Its been about 3 years since I got any though and need some more myself, last year my brother imported the Airsoft Paintball BB's from the U.S with no probs. You should be Ok mate, AIRSOFT GUNS though are something I would NOT recomend importing, these days they bastards are very strict on bb guns/ weapons in general here in Aust.

Watch carefully who you tell that you have homemade airguns etc as well!, I had a cop undercover that was onlline trying to entrap me with bbg gun info/what I had etc!!( Im not kidding)

Thanks mate,I saw my brothers ones and didnt think much of them really, I could do with some nice new Airsoft BBs though as mine are dirty/dented/reused too many times!.

Ive had a few customs probs over the years though and dont know if I want to order any more as it might arouse Aussie customs as ive had the previous probs with them. You other guys on here should be fine ordering the bbs though!,im perhaps being paranoid but these days am super carefull with my TOYS........

They're not going to get on your ass for ordering a few bb's, though it may help to change friend every now and then so they don't get too suspicious.

Just order to your house first time round, see what happens, they're not going to raid your house, or monitor it, but they may monitor addresses which import these kind of things, I doubt you will have any trouble though.

I was reading the above posts and just couldn't help to wonder. Does the Aussie Law really freak out about stuff like this? I mean, it's not like you could go on a terrorist mission or anything with plastic bbs (well, some of us probably could but they don't have to know that :wink: ).

If only Gordon Brown would do something as cool as that... perhaps I need to start a petition to equip the London buses with railguns.
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?
