I sent my hw97 to SFS just over 2 months ago,by Parcel Force 48hr the approved courier for air rifles.Got thair not a problem,and returned 5 weeks later without a hitch.Its the bloody idiots at the x-ray machine thats the proble.I cant help but notice the 2 other people that had gun related gear sent to Belfast,were all staying in Scotland,i am in Glasgow.Seems more like a scottish problem just now I cant tell you to post your gun it will be safe,thats a decision for you to make mate..For piece of mind,you could phone Tony and ask him if he has had any problems with peoples guns being held b
