We are the only source and because they are currently sold to the military it is against federal law to export one.

Might try seeing if you could pick one up used.  I'd check http://www.snipershide.com - www.snipershide.com , http://www.gunsamerica.com - www.gunsamerica.com and ebay.  I know its not the greatest alternative, and I suspect the fact that you are in Denmark will also add a wrinkle to these transactions. 

 

I would think your idea of having a friend buy one for you would also work.  However, I don't know if there are any import/export laws that would make this illegal.

Its pretty plain and simple.  IT IS AGAINST THE LAW TO EXPORT A SUPER SNIPER SCOPE....PERIOD.  Does not matter how you do it.  Don't do it and don't put some unsuspecting innocent bystander in jeopardy.  The U.S. Govt does take this very seriously.  Posting on a public forum how you plan to break the law and how to attempt to get around the law is not too bright either.  I want to make it clear that we are not associated with any of the people that are posting this information and we have no part in it.

 

Here is our policy.
