Does anybody know where on the BATF website I can find info about bringing 1 AK magazine back from overseas?  I looked but could find nothing.  I remembered seeing a post about it, but I cannot find it.   My internet-searching Fu is weak...
Thanks.

I'm bringing back a 30 round AK mag from Kuwait.  The mag was used by bodyguards in Iraq.  The place we rented our car from over here said the previous renter complained because he found 2 bullet holes in the car and the magazine stuffed under the seat.  The rental agent offered the clip to me, so now it's going into my safe.  I might try to dig up a few more, but that depends on how much time I have.
I appreciate your response.
Thanks.

From downrange, it will not make it.. Both US and Iraqi customs checks outgoing US Mil mail.

While you are perfectly legal on this end, I honestly would not bother with it.. It might create hassles for you when leaving, or in transit.. Some countries consider any firearms parts illegal, or an AK-47 magazine to be some defense article, etc... While you might clear it up in the end, its not really worth a $10 magazine.
