Is it legal for someone in Europe to ship USP conversions to the U.S.? I have read that HK only sells the caliber conversions on the European market. If it isn't illegal, then why isn't any of our European "brothers" selling some?
It would be nice to get a 9mm slide and barrel for my USPF 40.
Thank you

Completely legal WITH OBLIGATORY PAPERWORK DONE AND TAXES PAYED. Knowing it the other way around, e.g. bringing restricted parts from the US to Europe, IŽd say these conversions would cost You as much as a new gun from official Trussville import.

Best place to find them are here on the For Sale forum and gunbroker.com and gunsamerica.com

They show up here from time to time - just be patient and check every day.

Thanks for the info. Guess I will be on the computer more than I am now.

It's not cost effective. You are looking around $500 for the conversion kit. Might as well just buy another gun.
