It might be a bit offtopic.. but there is a certain US item that I would want to order.
It's a speedloader for 308 mags (G3 magazine in particular) from http://www.keepshooting.com.
The speedloader is 24.95, and I would like 2 packs of 20 stripperclips to come with it (7.95 per pack).

That would make $40.85... excl. shipping.. that's something I could live with.

Bút.. there is one problem. They dó ship overseas (not ITAR restricted) but.. I don't have a credit card, and they don't understand a thing about IBAN/swift transactions. (Normal bank transfer) and probably think I am some sort of an nigerian 419 scammer.

I would really like to get me those Items.. because it would spare me a lot of time while topping up my mags at the range (you are not allowed to transport loaded magazines in the Netherlands). Typically, I need to top up 8 to 10 mags for DSR ("fun version" of IPSC) that are 160 to 200 rounds (you only use about 80-120, but from different magazines..)

So.. I would like to know if some of you guys can help me with this, that accepts paypal or normal international banktransfer (if you understand how IBAN works).

I don't really need to get it from that shop, I can get it from all states.. but I have some problems getting it.
I already have some Dutch suppliers pending (that import stuff from the US, but noone replied yet)

IBAN/swift is inside EU only.

Are you sure? I needed to transfer some money to israel and I used the IBAN number aswell.
I got some army gear from an IDF "fan" site.

But I haven't got a creditcard, because as an 22 year old, the rates on creditcards are extreme.

You are right :oops:

IBAN is used by this ->countries<-, but USA and Canada not for sure. Israel use it too - let´s make them EU member, so we can get rations from there easily :wink:

Hmm then I'll have to do it by PayPal..
Is there anyone who would like to help me?

I do not want to do WesternUnion transfers and stuff like that, because they are to vulnerable to ripoff.

My wish list from US:

- USMC gear, no weapons (boots, clothing, first aid items/kit , webbing, an pistol holster for my airsoft gun) - I'm a former Romanian Marine and collector.

- anything related to mountaineering/ search and rescue (books mostly, but gear is welcome).

- any item related to Deep South/Dixie area of US (chewing tobacco, spices, liquor :mrgreen: )
