I have an international buyer in the Philippines, wanting to purchase an A.R.M.S. #40 rear sight.
I've tried google but can't come up with anything. I don't want to be bubba's b*tch, so what's the rule?
Thanks in advance.

Try using the Dept of State and ITAR in your search criterea.
After a few read throughs of the regulations I made it a practice not to ship anything outside of the US that is designed for sticking on an AR.

Tell them to buy from someone who is a registered arms exporter who can qualify for the 100$ wholesale exemption to needing a license. For example, Brownells. (Last I looked which was about 4 years ago it cost $1750 a year to be registered, so I am not).
Most gun parts fall under the ITAR rules which prohibit export without appropriate licenses. There are exemptions. You can get the actual ITAR rules, I believe from the state dept website, and read it for yourself. You can skip all the nuclear and laser and stuff like that...
