Other firearms and similar devices which operate by the firing of an explosive charge (for example, sporting shot- guns and rifles, muzzle-loading firearms, Very pistols and other devices designed to project only signal flares, pistols and revolvers for firing blank ammunition, captive-bolt humane killers, line-throwing guns)

Heading 9303 covers firearms and similar devices that fire an explosive charge, such as shotguns, sporting rifles, muzzle-loading guns, blank-firing pistols and line-throwing guns. It splits first by type: muzzle-loading firearms (9303.10), shotguns and combination guns (9303.20), other sporting rifles (9303.30), and a residual other group (9303.90). Rifle lines split further by value and action type, and rates are often assessed partly on the value of any telescopic sight imported with the rifle.
