ThankyouYou would need German to read the docs.
This was the only part that I thought might affect you.
"You also require a permit for temporarily importing firearms in the course of a trip or journey."

Do you have a contact number for them?I have dealt with FedPol and found them extremely helpful. Ask them. The Swiss have this wonderful attitude where they try and help you to comply with the law...most refreshing!
