CO2 capsules and delivery companies.

[Arthur John Smithsplease]

I've recently sold several CO 2 pistols on this board, one of them to Sweden, and included CO2 capsules in the packages.

Now I'm having doubts about the legality of sending CO 2 12 gram capsules by post.

Parcel Farce for example have said no to compressed gases , inflammable or nonflammable, even for UK domestic delivery.

Yet every capsule I have ever bought has come by post.

I really need some advice on this one, and quickly, as my customers are waiting.

Please help.

Simple dont tell them what is in the parcel, i posted my S400 to air arms empty they sent it back with 160bar in it.

"Yet every capsule I have ever bought has come by post."

Same here. On one occasion the post office managed to bust open the packing; they obviously saw what was in the parcel and taped it up. The parcel arrived with me with a PO notice on it:
"Do not fly - contains gas".

I send out about 50-60 CO2 capsules per day (in bags of 8, not one bag of 50-60 ), but I didn't think you could send them abroad. I may be wrong though.
