Hive Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Hi! I live in Germany and would love to have an authentic A-10C GAU-8 Warthog Dummy/Inert Round for decoration purposes. I found some sellers, but they usually do not ship internationally, like these: https://www.amazon.com/General-Dynamics-Warthog-Thunderbolt-Round/dp/B08HHN2G8Y https://www.cdvs.us/product/30mm-vulcan-gau8-new-aluminum-case-dummy-rd-price-each/ https://www.gunbroker.com/item/933749650 A seller on ebay explained to me he had to sign a paper not to export the used casings he bought from the government, but this does not seem mandatory as the following items with real casings (and unfortunately fake projectile) can be shipped to Germany: https://www.amazon.de/10-Warthog-Kanonensammler-Dummy-rund/dp/B07YR64YPM https://www.aerialsurplus.com/ I already contacted the German custom authorities and it is legal to import such items. Does anyone have an idea/advice for me? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then some sanding, or applying filler, paints from plastic models and gloss varnish for metallic look.
