Contact Peter Johansen at EP International. He works with people in the UK and deals with pre and post 1898 firearms. I have availed myself of his services importing antiques from the UK. I also know he exports both antiques and modern firearms back there as well.

If you’re dealing with pre-1898 antiques, they might be exempt from some firearm regs, but export laws like EAR can still apply depending on the destination or item specifics.
