Hola!
I am moving to Guatemala in ~6 months. I have been there several times and I have my permanent residency. I have seen posts here and on other boards saying that guns are legal in GT, and I have been to a couple gun stores there so know this to be true. My question is not about buying or owning a firearm there, but rather bringing them from the US to GT.
By way of background, I have been a competitive shooter (3rd generation) for 40 years. I have many firearms that have been heavily customized, have been entirely custom built for me, or that I have built. These include pistols and rifles. Many of these were built by gunsmiths who have since retired, or how literally thousands of dollars invested in them. So I am not talking about a simple Glock 19 that is the same anywhere.
Is it possible to bring these in to the country? Anyone know the process and costs? What about reloading supplies like primers and gun powder?
Please, I am not looking for a debate, I am looking for honest answers preferably based on real experience. Thanks in advance!
