I recently bought an early Rigby sidelock from a dealer in England. We arranged to have it shipped by John Foster using Parcelforce. As it turned out Parceforce returned the gun to John Foster telling them that they no longer shipped guns. Rhonda Foster can arrange to have it shipped to me air freight. The closest airport is likely to be Logan in Boston.
Does anyone know what is involved recieving a gun by air freight. Do I have to move it through customs. Are there snags I am likely to run into? With MA gun laws, will I be arrested on the spot, or as a non-resident, can I carry it to Vermont as long as it is still packaged or put into a case of my own? Any help would be appreciated.
I promise pictures when Rigby finds a new home.
Regards,
John
