Politics aside, I would like to have a realistic idea of the total cost of importing if I buy from Holt's this month.

I bought my oldest an EM Reilly for 70 pounds several years ago and paid about 400 for the import as I remember it. I am now looking for a couple more guns for two of my other kids to learn some restoration skills and to add themselves to a gun's long history. We are looking for guns under 200 pounds or so that need some work to bring them back to life.

So the question is: With the current tariffs on top of the pre-existing import costs, what could I realistically expect to pay to get an 1890s gun to the States, assuming a sales price of about 200 pounds?
