Another dead end... see below. And before you say "don't tell them then" that's fine until it goes wrong in some way and you have to disclose it... and if it's going to go wrong, it will for meOriginally Posted by TinTentTourist

Exactly, with royal mail, even if they try telling you they cant at the post office just tell them it's the law that they have to set by postcom... (i think its postcom...)

I followed the Guvnors advice on packing and posting airguns to the letter and my transaction went as sweet as a nut , I was edgy about shipping an airgun , but the packaging advice at the top of this thread was spot on .
10/10 for a brilliant sticky and practical guide
cheers

Looking at the Parcelforce website today it only says S1 and S2 firearms are restricted - couldn't find any restriction on airguns, so I sent mine in innocence today - the young lady in the P.O. (yes it went parcelforce via them) didn't ask what was in it.
just hope nothing goes wrong
Ive used parcelforce 3 times now - thankfully theres been no issues , it helps that I am on friendly terms with my local post office and ive sent so many large packages over the years they dont bat an eyelid now.
Ive tried to use royal mail but they said the package ( air rifle ) was over the maximum length for next day special delivery
good thread
