button Posted April 2, 2022 Report Share Posted April 2, 2022 Hi can you tell me, as a buyer in Scotland can a private seller in England post direct to me as long as they satisfy themselves I am authorised, ie I scan them a copy of my air weapon certificate? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

button Posted April 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2022 It’s a collectors piece, which I’m unlikely to find again anytime soon so this is my only option on this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mice!

I realise you might be no where near an Rfd, but rfd transfer might be your best bet, or at least safest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldypigeonpopper Posted April 2, 2022 Report Share Posted April 2, 2022 Hello, RFD might be the safest option or parcel force 48 , about £15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I have received air rifles by post, from England to Scotland, and sent an air rifle the other direction, with no issues. Both declared as such with the Royal Mail 48 hr service, which is the only way to send them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
