Marmite!! Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 There is no restrictions on posting deacs with Parcel Force... once a firearm has been deactivated it ceases to be a Firearm ... No mention of deacs in there policies... ARMS AND AMMUNITION All types of ammunition are prohibited from being sent using any of the Services. Section 1 and 2 arms and firearms may be permitted for Zone 1 to Zone 1 collections and deliveries for account Customers only, subject to prior written agreement being provided by Parcelforce Worldwide to the Customer, such agreement to be given at Parcelforce Worldwide's absolute discretion. Zone 1 to Zone 1 Collections and deliveries of Section 1 and 2 arms and firearms will only be accepted where it can be shown to Parcelforce Worldwide's satisfaction that both the Customer and the addressee are registered firearm dealers.
