    Interesting discussion guys. I used NZ Post recently when I sent and received a replacement for an AR15 upper. As I understand it the upper is not a firearm.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    NZ Post changed policies regarding gun parts about two years ago and now don't want even stocks either. And uppers have been a no-no for even longer. There is no cover for any gun parts that are sent and go missing. You can send scopes inside NZ but overseas will depend on their own regulations.

    The even more interesting thing is that NZ Post deliver the mail ex USPS (USA) when you order from Brownells etc. You have no control over that.

    I'm pretty sure I failed school cert physics but I imagine the case would go flying rather than the projectile ... but what would I know.
