    Advice required to ship rifle stock to Geneva, Switzerland

    Not sure if this is the right place to post.....

    I have a fault with rifle stock purchased from Christensen Europe in Geneva. The bonded action bedding block is now moving so I need to return for warranty Who the heck would I use to freight the stock back to Switzerland?? NZ post or DHL don't do firearm parts.... my google foo isn't helping much either. Any experience or ideas on which freight company to use to send this stock back????

    I have used Pack and Send to send stocks to Europe, cost approx $100, delivery in approx a week. I'm pretty sure Pack and Send are an NZ wide franchise.

    Yep, try them, I'm sure they're international. .....contemplated using them in the UK. Pretty much walk in off the street and pack it yourself, address and send.

    Although expensive I had a fantastic service with pack&send. 2 days later my stock arrived in Switzerland after dropping off at my local!!! Definitely very impressed by their service.
    puku and Dreamer like this.
