Post Office and Royal Mail

[rogb]

Just to correct a major point here - RM is FINE for anything from 1st class upwards but the rules on parcel sizes mean you can only send pistols:

The terms and conditions have been updated since I checked last year as they had been superseded by the online list, this has now been corrected. What IS of paramount importance is that you NEVER use the leaflet in the Post Office as the old one is well out of date and contains incorrect advice and the updated one STILL hasn't been corrected.

And, as implied, ALWAYS check online as the T&C's state that is the definitive list.

What is also of paramount importance if you are posting PCP or CO2 pistols or rifles is the "no pressurised vessels even if empty" ruling - makes it a bit of a Russian roulette if you decide to chance it through surface only PF48. With £100 max compensation even more of a gamble.

Aye, not a huge fan of the gamble myself, sent a few legit CO2 guns with no powerlets but not keen on PCPs. TBH I'd sooner just do RFD transfer and sleep better.
