DWARREN123 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 (edited) Have to go thru a importer and may not work since the G25 does not meet importation rules for the general public.. You will need to get with someone who deals with importing firearms. Edited October 19, 2018 by DWARREN123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borg warner Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 It will cost money. I don't understand the fascination with a gun the size of a Glock 19 chambered in 380 but I do understand that if something is harder to obtain that it makes it more desirable. So if you want it bad enough you can have it but it will cost you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rand 8500-about $590..plus ship..I donno..the Browning Black label is hard to find too..but, don't like the '1911' format..wee bit less recoil than my G19(altho I know G25 a blowback design, which makes it more snappy)..Arthritis in wrist for this old fart..'recoil sensitive'..G42 for carry..be nice to have one caliber on my shelf...

9x19 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Unless you are active LE or Military, it's not likely you can import a Glock 25. As was mentioned above it doesn't earn enough points on the ATFE "Sporting Purposes" chart to allow importation for sale to private citizens. In this case, the caliber is what keeps it under the minimum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWARREN123 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Not sure about LEO or Military being able to import a G25/28. A military agency may purchase from a importer, I believe, but not a military person (individual). Same for LEO, once imported LEO's may be able to purchase. Best thing to do is talk to a firearms importer or BATFE to get the real info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
