Just got below from a US agent exporting me a rifle:

Today, instead of the confirmation that all was well, we received a notification that FedEx UK has henceforth suspended all firearms shipments to/from UK. I am sorry for the bad news - it seems the entire world is currently on a anti-gun rampage.

We will find a solution but fyi

This is the reply i got when i asked:

FedEx does not offer a service carrying Firearms. This is a commercial decision and so you may be able to get a quote from another carrier

WOW - That's a big help, arrogant twerps! Ah well, if we need to send any parcels we can at least try and avoid FedEx.
