    Had a look in their shop a couple of times, after hearing their sales patter and seeing the stock actually in, we left, quickly.
    Why what has gone wrong?

    Ordered a gun to be delivered by them , and keep getting fobbed off with different delivery dates and the usual we will call you back in half hour . The other day I got told " we don't have them in stock but yours will be here in the morning for Saturday delivery " double checked with them today and no they don't have it and can't get one . Any way I asked for a refund and they promised it would be paid back in 10 mins . Rang back half hour later to ask where's my refund to be told the manager is doing it now ..... But hey ho nothing . Wish I never bothered with them and certainly wouldn't recommend them to anyone .

    They can't do that! Gun sales by RFD have to be face to face!
    They can send it to an RFD who can verify your age and details, but they cannot sell it and send it to you by mail!
    It's against the law!

    Pownalls Airgun Delivery Service
    Due to overwhelming interest we are now very pleased to introduce the 'Pownalls Airgun Delivery Service'.

    The law in the UK states that airguns are only allowed to be sold via a face to face transaction. Therefore making it illegal to send airguns, air rifles and silencers via Royal Mail or by Courier. This is where 'Pownalls Air Gun Delivery Service' comes in. When a customer buys an airgun from our website or over the telephone we can now deliver it straight to their door saving them for having to visit our store in Great Yarmouth.

    Delivery Areas
    For £19.99 we will deliver your airguns or rifles, including any accessories you may need, to anywhere in England and Wales.


    We use our own vans and drivers ensuring that we cover each county in East Anglia at least once a week. Upon arriving at our destination the person who ordered the airgun/rifle will be required to provide a valid form of identification, including date-of-birth and is to say for the delivery. For more information on airgun laws please see the VCR act.

    Customers outside Delivery Area
    When placing an airgun order online the customer will be asked to enter their postcode to find out if they are eligible for delivery. If they are outside of our standard delivery zone (no order can be place online unless the customer falls within our standard delivery area) they will be prompted to fill out a simple form which will allow us to get in contact with them to potentially arrange a bespoke delivery (restrictions apply depending on availability of products and staff).
