This is the reply I got from my little complaint to Ebay;
Dear Steinar,
in regards to your specific listings, firearm parts must
only have domestic shipping within the United States. Other countries
have very strict guidelines what is able to be imported into their
countries in regards to weapons so as to not get our sellers in any
trouble, we ask that they only offer domestic shipping within the United
States for these firearm parts.
This is why the listing was ended since international shipping was an
option. You are more than welcome to relist the auctions but please
simply adjust the shipping option.
For information on eBay's policies regarding firearms, weapons and
knives, please view:

If you need further assistance, Steinar, please don't hesitate to reply
to this email and let me know.
Sincerely,

Since I live in Europe, domestic shipping within the United States of harmless bolt, pins and springs would not make much sense to me. No country I know of would consider these parts as restricted..
