I can second the choices above and add Neal Stepp at email
I_S_S@sbcglobal.net note the underscores
International Shooters Service
His web site lists products but you have to email for price and availability.
I can recommend him highly

At the moment, ISS is at the top of my list. Don't fart around with email; phone him directly!

As for air rifles, I got a great deal on a Walther air rifle and accessories from 10.9 with no problems.

If you happen to go to the CMP Range at Anniston, Alabama, (not too far from the Talladega Marksmanship Park) you can walk into Creedmoor Sports and get stuff and save shipping costs.

We walked in to buy some pellets this past weekend for the Dixie Double.
They are primarily set up for online/postal deliveries, but they gave us a tour around the warehouse.
They also load premium ammo on-site complete with test fire jigs for consistency and make custom-fit suits on-site.

For air guns, if you are buying online and not in person, why do you care if the shop is in the USA?

I've bought a Steyr Evo 10 from https://www.krale-schietsport.nl; ordered Sat evening, pistol at my door on Tue.
Shipping was $49.95 and included pump and a few boxes of pellets.

For what was mentioned with Krale in NL as a source: what kind of tariff did you need to pay for importing the air pistol?

I believe the US distributor and repair facility has no obligation to warranty or repair steyrs that haven't been imported by them. Or so i hear

It has been said before, but everything breaks or needs repair/tuneup at some point and will need parts. If everyone buys outside of the country they live in there will be no one around when you have a question or do need help.
And no, I do not own a business, but I do have common sense.

We recently had two Morini pistols resealed by Pilkguns (and a FWB 80, as well). Service was quick, professional, and accurate. Our suggestion is to support the businesses who support us.

I didn't have to pay anything else. In fact, as a US customer, I didn't even have to pay EU VAT.
I agree on repair and tuneup, but I am a DIY person, so it's not a big deal for me, and in any case, unless you are local, at the current shipping rates repairing in US or in EU is not too different. YMMV of course.
