dickbmw Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 I have someone who is intersted in buying my .410 but has asked if I would hand it over to a registered courier for onward transit to an RFD. Has anyone any experience of this - presumably the RFD's must ship their goods somehow? All help appreciated. Cheers Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunganick Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 its reasonably simple, you sign your gun over to a local gunshop (rfd) and they send (for a fee) your gun to another rfd in the buyers area, the buyer then goes and collects the gun which is given to him by the gunshop. the gunshops normally sort out the technical stuff, and you just need to notify plod that you got rid of it or that you recieved it.

Ishapoor Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 ...or indeed it's perfectly legal for an RFD to arrange a 'carriage forward' to pick up a weapon using a registered courier (TNT for example.) from anywhere, including private addresses. The most important aspect of any transaction is that it GOES to an RFD... You would get a fax/photocopy of the dealers licence and inform your police that you had disposed of the gun to them. Impartially speaking of course! :thumbs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 Go to your local Gunshop and speak to them about your requirements. Its a very usual practise and about the most efficient way to sell privately to customers, who are some long distance away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
