Also, Parcel Force's own rules state that low-power airguns and lead pellets are excepted from their prohibited items.
I have looked on the UK .gov website and can't find anything regarding shipping on there, and phoned my local police HQ and they didn't know either.
Can anyone link me to a reliable source of information? I'm so confused! Help!
Thanks in advance.
