Firearms, parts and accessories, of revolvers or pistols.
Classification of pistol grip under HS 9305.10
A pistol grip is classified under HS code 9305.10, which covers parts and accessories of revolvers or pistols. Chapter 93 of the Harmonized System is dedicated to arms and ammunition, and heading 9305 specifically addresses parts and accessories of the articles falling under headings 9301 to 9304. The classification of a pistol grip is determined by its function as a dedicated component of a firearm. According to Note 1(c) to Chapter 93, parts of general use (such as screws or springs) are excluded, but specialized components like grips, which are designed specifically for the ergonomic operation of a handgun, are included. The material of the grip (whether plastic, wood, or metal) does not change the classification to the material's respective chapter, as the specific use as a firearm part takes precedence under GRI 1 and the Chapter 93 notes.

Codes often confused with 9305.10
Common mistake. Pistol grips are often misclassified under HS code 3926.90 (other articles of plastics) or 4421.99 (other articles of wood) based on their material composition. However, because they are identifiable parts of firearms, heading 9305 is more specific and must be used. Another common error is using HS code 9305.20, which is reserved for parts and accessories of shotguns or rifles. If a grip is designed for a long gun (rifle/shotgun) rather than a pistol or revolver, it must be classified under 9305.20 or 9305.91/99 depending on the specific firearm type.

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).
