9013.10.30.00 - Other

This classification, HTS Code 9013.10.30.00, covers "Other" telescopic sights designed for fitting to rifles. It specifically encompasses those telescopic sights that are not explicitly excluded by other subheadings within the 9013.10 category. The intent of this subheading is to capture telescopic sights intended for firearm applications that do not meet the criteria of any more specific classification.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, HTS Code 9013.10.10.00, by the absence of an infrared light functionality. While both are telescopic sights for rifles, HTS Code 9013.10.10.00 pertains to sights *not* designed for use with infrared light, implying that this current subheading, 9013.10.30.00, implicitly includes or is intended for sights that *are* designed for use with infrared light or other functionalities not otherwise specified. The primary differentiating factor is the specific technological capability related to light spectrum utilization.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification purposes is on determining whether a telescopic sight intended for a rifle falls under the broader scope of telescopic sights (9013.10) and, if so, whether it is more specifically covered by other subheadings. If a telescopic sight for a rifle does not fit the criteria of the "Not designed for use with infrared light" subheading, it will be classified here, encompassing a range of features and functionalities not otherwise delineated.
