Thread: What courier or transport company will cart a rifle in nz ?

Yep , I thought that too. But "Customs " dont actually hold anything . All the international recievers including NZ post , DHL, Toll etc are actaully agents of "customs" . MY rifle would arrive in NZ ( probably via UPS service ) from the states . Then it would ( I guess ) be handed off to NZ post as just another international parcel landed in NZ . NZ post will inform customs , and customs would then do their thing via NZ post . Then one of them would say the parcel was here , and import duty was X . SO , I pay one of them the duty and Then the rifle would just sit there because NZ post wont deliver it .
So, what I dont know is . Will one of them say thanks for the money , drive up to Auckland , go to airport , knock on shed 32 door and ask nicely , or what ?
