Rimfireboy Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Depends on the courier, I understand parcelforce don't transport guns anymore. No law against it though, if its a private sale. Traders aren't allowed to post air guns since 2007 though. I would reckon most of the smaller courier outfits wouldn't have a problem with it?

kyska Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Perfectly legal. If you're not a RFD, royal mail it. Job, jobbed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secretagentmole Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Parcelforce tracked 48 hour does accept air rifles, despite what post offices may say, terms and conditions have changed but post offices may not be aware! Pistols can be sent by special delivery royal mail.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theskyfox Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 Yep, Posted an air rifle to manufacturers just a few weeks back. Parcel force does allow non FAC rated rifles in the system...pick up a leaflet on it in the post office and its all listed on there what you can/cant send. -Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
