Analysis
Subheading 9305.91 covers of military weapons of heading 9301, within heading 9305. The first six digits are shared by every country that uses the Harmonized System, so this part of the code is the same in the US, UK and EU schedules; the 3 US tariff lines below it are national.
Every one of its 3 tariff lines is duty-free at the general rate, so classification within the subheading affects statistics and Chapter 99 measures rather than the base duty.
The US splits it as follows: 9305.91.10 for of military weapons of heading 9301: of rifles (duty-free), 9305.91.20 for of military weapons of heading 9301: of shotguns (duty-free) and 9305.91.30 for of military weapons of heading 9301: other (duty-free).
By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Small Arms, Ordnance, and Ordnance Accessories Manufacturing (332994). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
