posting air weapons ?

[Mark D]

Thanks Adam

I'm happy with the RM SD T&Cs and have not had an issue in the past. I do seem to remember that I had read a post on a forum recently, that scanners used at airports were picking up airguns and they were being sent off for testing / verification to Belfast or where ever they now do the testing. Hence the 'surface mail'

I'd assume (dangerous I know) that when you declare "it's an air pistol" the post office should know to send it via the appropriate transport. I'm not saying the doomsday "shipping off to Belfast for examination then destruction" scenario can't happen, but I suspect when it has it's been when the contents have been declared as something else vague and innocuous.
