Make sure it's wrapped really well and lie about what's in it

Post office mate, 48 hr special delivery, it will cost around 15-20 quid, or giv A-B couriers a bell, I have used them before, very good they were.

Nice

 

In that case - I'm pretty sure you're allowed to send spring rifles by PF48

Charlie - do you have to tell lies to the post office or A-B couriers also ?

For that matter, is it better to lie to any of the couriers lads ?

Reason I ask this is that I`m very tempted to send both of my FWB`s to Sandwell Field Sports and I thought - parcels to gunsmiths might make someone`s mind "click" if your not supposed to send an air rifle privately ?

 

 

Thanks for any advice

No sending an air rifle is perfectly legal via parcelforce 48 hr signed for, and A-B couriers are more than happy to transport sub 12 air rifles

Just make sure they are wrapped up well lads I work in a courier warehouse were parcels are sorted and to say they are handeld gently would be an understatement.

I was put off telling porkys as parcel force said that all items are scanned and if it's a firearm of any description it gets pulled and unwrapped and then tested to make sure it's sub 12ftlb so I gave up. Just my luck for mine to be the one that gets held for weeks and damaged as well.
