BSA Really Gamo GX40

Hello all, does anyone know UK shops that ship to the USA? I'm looking for a GX40 that doesn't have the ridiculous pickle on it. It seems we are cursed with those in America but the UK isn't. I'm not sure if there's some prohibition about that but the only place I see them is Gamo themselves and when you go to the USA side everything is pickled. Any shop suggestions or clarification that it's just not done for whatever reason I'd greatly appreciate.
Thanks much
 
You can track down a used BSA Buccaneer and throw it in an Urban stock if you wanted. They come up for sale every once in a while. You get the long barrel and the long air cylinder that way too. The GX40 has a really short air cylinder it looks like. Barrels come up for sale sometimes too if you wanted to go that way. I spent some time looking around for EU versions of Gamo/BSA last year and came up empty but maybe somebody has a US source they can share.

ETA: The other option is to pay somebody on the forum to cut the factory moderator off and thread the muzzle to do a custom shroud.

Thanks McNasty, I do like the coyote a fair bit especially in the wood but it's more full size. I got the lady an urban when Amazon had a deal going but it wouldn't zero to save it's life. Good groups just three inches off center of any optic on it. She sent it back so I want to "get her" a replacement while taking the opportunity for something I might like to play with too. I can only stretch that credibility so far 😂. I will check out the link and hopefully come up with something we'll both like.

The buccaneer idea has potential. I emailed Gamo about a replacement barrel when I ordered my urban. Radio silence from them. Not a screw you guy or nothing. I'd ordered the better fill end for the Gamo and a couple spare magazines so I was thinking something that I could still use those for. I think the mags will still work in the buccaneer so it's still in the ballpark of looking at. The suggestions are much appreciated.
 
I have a Gamo Urban, a Coyote in 22Cal, a Coyote in 177Cal, and a BSA Buccaneer in 22Cal. I can verify the mags fit and feed in all of them. They are pretty much the same rifle, just in a different configuration. I have taken them all completely apart and everything is interchangeable.

Gamo unfortunately does not have a good reputation for supplying spare parts to the US or anywhere really. Pretty much the only things you can get is what you will find on sites like:

Thank you for that info, puts a little more leaning to the buccaneer if the GX-40 doesn't pan out. Or later when an appropriate amount of time has passed for a new rifle 😂. I did a little business with B & K when I was trying to get my Kral back to a functional state. They had some bits but apparently most Kral stuff is made of unobtainium. Although it's occurred to me the urban and the puncher breaker bear some similarities so maybe I can find that damned hammer screw yet.
