HS Code 9305.10 – Firearms; parts and accessories, of revolvers or pistols

HS code 9305.10 is the 6-digit subheading for firearms, parts and accessories, of revolvers or pistols. It is used for pistol slides, revolver frames, pistol barrels, handgun magazines and handgun grips.

What HS 9305.10 covers

This HS code specifically covers parts and accessories for revolvers and pistols. This includes essential components like frames, slides, barrels, cylinders, and magazines, as well as accessories such as grips, sights, holsters, and cleaning kits. The international trade in these items is driven by several factors: original equipment manufacturing (OEM), repair and maintenance, customization, and the aftermarket for enthusiasts. Due to their critical role in the functionality of handguns, these parts are subject to stringent regulations, often mirroring those applied to complete firearms. Importers and exporters must navigate complex licensing requirements, end-user certificates, and compliance with national and international arms control treaties to prevent illicit assembly or diversion. Understanding the specific design and intended use for revolvers or pistols is paramount for accurate classification and regulatory adherence.

How these figures are built

109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
