    It is not a gun part...it is an accessory...it is not an integral part of the gun. NZPost and DHL can go fark themselves. I could tape a fork to the end of the barrel if I wanted to...can't send a fork oseas. Clowns.

    Here the definition they use:


    Firearms (inc. parts and ammunition)
    Firearm parts are any piece of a firearm that is designed or intended to be an integral part of a firearm, regardless of whether it is in working condition. Firearm parts include, but are not limited to, the breech/chamber, stock/butt, magazine, silencer, barrel, bolt and trigger assembly.

    So WTF?! Argh #&^#^#^@ers

    They seem great...now to get the scope to them somehow. Figure I'll get the mrs to post it to QG Exchange.

    I looked at EMS...but their intl carrier is NZ Post FFS. I'm hitting the whiskey before I blow a farken valve.

    Hahaha fuk man I feel your pain.

    I went to send an expensive scope back to Leupold, packaged it up & took it into NZ post, old Dorris behind the bits of wire asked me the value & what it was. I stupidly said it was a rifle scope, As soon as those words left my lips I knew I'd f up. bloody hell you would of thought I had a hand grenade in the box. I was luckly that I just took it to another postshop the next day & said it was a spotting scope for watching birds


    If you get really stuck, try your local gun shop & they might be able to help you out

    Yes I am quite good at weasel words if I may so.... but this is connected to being integral. A scope is not integral...but not limited doesnt come into play.

    Use the word Telescope, then it kinda falls away from the thought of being anything firearm related. Good luck
