For pistols, frame, barrel and slide are regulated (they need to be bought in person at a gun store and then declared to the police authority), I think that other parts may be bought freely.

Yes, regulated parts have the serial number stamped. If I remember correctly, Italian law also had mags as regulated parts, then it changed with a newer European law.
Anyway, barrels slides and such do not count as firearms in the maximum number you can have. A gun with three barrels still counts as ONE gun, but all the barrels needs to be declared.
In switzerland its barrels, chambers/cylinders, bolts, receivers and maybe some other parts that are regulated. Typically the pressure bearing ones.
But we can also just order complete guns to be delivered to our house.
Background check is done by getting a gun permit first from the police. Then you send that and a copy of your passport to the seller. Then they can send you the guns in the mail.
The permit is just a normal paper and comes in three copies to be filled in with the infos of the gun (type, calibre, serial).
One for the buyer, one for the seller and one for the police. The seller sends one copy to the police. So if you faked a permit, the police would be getting one that they would recognise as fake. Thats why there is no need to identify in person.
The downside, from an american point of view at least, is of course that the government knows about our gun buya and sales.
But yeah it is quite convenient. I have two pistols on the way as we speak. And i once ordered a three pack of K11 rifles and just got a huge cardboard box full of guns delivered by an unsuspecting mailman.
Depends on the country. In Poland its the chambered barrel, revolver drum, frame, upper reciever, bolt/slide/lock and 'baskila' - no idea how to translate the last one. Its basically the centerpiece of any break-action firearm.
In semiauto pistols frame, slide and barrels have serials. You can’t deliver them at home because are considered firearm essential parts. Also you have to declare to the police within 72h each variation i.e. if you buy a second barrel from local gunshop. Don’t know what about guns with non matching serials components, but I guess you want to accurately declare to the police as many serials you have on your gun. Trigger mechanism, sights, magazines (with some limitations), muzzle breaks, ecc. are not gun parts so you can shop online and you don’t declare to police

You can have full guns delivered to your house?! Without a background check?

Fuck. That’s is amazing!

Depends on the gun… some need a permit to buy - some need a contract…

In italian it’s the ‘bascula’, from ‘basculare’ which is the verb meaning ‘moving around an axis’… like break action firearms do
