If I order a gun from RedWolf Airsoft, will it be taken at the border when it enters the U.S.?

one issue right now with that. it is currently Chinese New Year so it will take EVEN longer for it to arrive here then normal. other than that it shouldnt get held up at U.S Customs longer then the normal.

Redwolf Airsoft is good to go. I have never seen any issues with their guns coming into the US, any issues involving trades usually lead to the guns trademarks being filled off in some fashion by customs then the gun is cleared and sent through. That being said though I would personally try to avoid ordering from overseas because it takes longer, shipping is expensive, it takes a while to get what you want, and customer service (returns and troubleshooting) can also take a while because of the long distance. That being said I would only order from overseas if I could not find a part/gun in the States' or for that matter at your local shops.

I place an order with RedWolf on 19 January, and due to the Chinese  New Year, it shipped on the 26th.  I received it on the 28th.  That is better shipping than a lot of domestic companies, and they are half-way around the world.   That is not the only experience I have had with them.  The other order took just 5 days from order payment to my front door.

That being said, they do charge high shipping prices.  Call Ron at Gearbox to see if he can get the item you want.

While I've always been happy with Redwolf (prefer eHobby though), I'm not sure why people are using shipping times as proof of their quality.  Once the package is in the shipping company's hands, it's got absolutely nothing to do with the retailer.  If the package took two days to get here, it's the shipping company you should be talking about.  Now, the amount of time it takes them to get it TO the shipper.....  that's something to discuss. 

In addition, the shipper has pretty much zero control over customs.  As long as they are putting on an orange tip and covering trademarks (which every HK retailer I've done business with does), then there's nothing else they can do.  It's not like some retailers have a "Customs, don't look in this box" sticker.

Redwolf is a stand up company I have ordered numerous items from them and have been nothing but pleased with their customer support and great strives to make sure your item is delivered to you!
