Is it possible to have sent by surface mail, items such as deactivated stick grenades and deactivated panzerfausts? Into the uk from europe?
thanks

Hi Mat, NO! Do not even think about it.

Cheers, Ade.

[Mat Holloway]

Can firearms dealers import them?

[Adrian Stevenson]

Only one with the correct licence can do this. Anyone else is breaking the Law and can suffer very serious penalties..

Cheers, Ade.

Deact grenades and fausts are illigal to be sent through the post from europe!? where did you hear that? thats got me worried now you dont need deact certs for them items so why should they be restricted?

Hi,
Can youy let me know what the licence is that you refer to. I have never had any problems in having ordnance sent from Germany. That is of coarse as long as it is inert. I have never heard of a licence, although in todays world one must think about what they are in fact having shipped. I recently posted some 88 shells and heads to Northern Ireland....something that I would never have thought to have been ok but all went well and there were no problems and everything was declared on the documentation.
As for stick grenades what are you after, I have a number for sale.

over the past few years i have had (sent from Germany,Austria and France ) several stick grenades, panzerfausts and even mines all inert/deactivated all through normal post without any problems, the only prolems I have had was with two K98 stocks (woodwork) from the USA which were impounded by the customs handed over to the local CID who then delivered them to me saying the customs believed I was importing firearms in parts but the police saw this was total nonsense and handed them over to me
