    I have ordered numerous small parts(like springs and pins and magwells etc.) and magazines from Brownells with no issue.

    I had to send a copy of my license when I applied for the ITAC permit, 9mm magazines require proof that you own (legally) a 9mm according to the ITAC rep. This was in 2014.

    In cases like this, you also need to know Sect 94 FCA:
    Prohibition of possession of firearm parts.-(1) For purposes of this section"firearm part" means a slide,, bolt,or breechblock of a firearm.
    ...(2) No persom may possess any firearm part unless he or she-
    (a) holds a licence in respect of a firearm capable of bearing that firearm part;
    (b) holds a dealers licence, manufacturer's licence, gunsmith's licence ...

    I order 2 x shipments of small parts for a 1911 last year and 2 x shipments of 1911 mags and wasn't required to produce proof or license.

    Did customs still require an ITAC permit?

    "(e) an antique firearm;" -This must be incorrect. An antique is generally accepted as older
    than 100 years. I have antique guns which I had to licence like any normal firearm ?

    Picked up 2 mags for my P10 on Saturday. I also touched my P10C for the first time in the gunshop. Hell, it's the first time I've seen one in real life, nevermind. I must say, I like it very much.

    The worst part now is going to be waiting for my licence.

    Luker, The original act was amended in 2006.
    Antique firearm was replaced with "Muzzle Loading Firearm."

    4. Section 5 of the principal Act is hereby amended by the substitution in subsection
    (1) for paragraph (e) of the following paragraph:
    ‘‘(e) [an antique] a muzzle loading firearm;’’.
