I asked this in GD and got a lack luster response.

Is this product : http://lbtinc.com/pouches/miscellaneous-pouches/padded-binoculars-pouch.html

ITAR rstircted?
I looked though out the regulations, primarily in Category X where I assume it would fall and found nothing. Just want to be safe!
Thanks

As I'm not a lawyer, take this or leave it but I don't see a padded pouch being a huge deal to export unless I'm missing something..

I would say non-issue, if it was a grenade pouch or something interesting then yes

I imagine you are asking because you want to buy or sell these off-shore. The product you have listed is complaint with ITAR.

CAVEAT: I'd not ship 1,000 of them to Libya or any other sanctioned country though - because then you have to worry about OFAC and Department of Commerce regulations and restrictions.

Thanks guys, yeah an individual in Hong Kong bought it. Without me even thinking I shipped it out and it's currently on it's way to a sorting faculty within the US (eBay deal). Was wondering if I needed to put a stop on the package but it sounds like I am GTG.
