But
Royal Mail (a different company to Parcel-force) also legally carry 'guns for sporting use' if they fit the RM size limits,
RMSD has basic compensation of £750 & I have an email stating they cover enhanced compensation on guns, which Parcel-force do not.

The only issue is that RMSD will move by air, & the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) do not allow guns as unaccompanied baggage,
so guns must be marked "surface mail only" to go by road.
