Idiot royalmail at it again.

I'm sorry for asking this question here but how do I create a new post?

Pick which board is relevant, and on the page where all the threads are listed, there's a blue button at the top left that says 'new thread'. (It looks like the 'post reply' one that you used to do your message)

We have gun control for a reason - to stop weapons (and air rifles are weapons, abeit ones that are normally used for hunting and / or target shooting) getting in the hands of those who are likely to misuse them or be unable to use them responsibly.

I can fully understand Royal Mail not wanting to deliver them, given the legal ramifacations if a package containing a gun and / or ammo goes missing. If someone really does not want to deliver a gun or ammo by hand then they really should be using a courier that is equipped appropiatly

There are some air rifles that require a Fire Arms Certificate (FAC) and Air Pistols over certain power levels are illegal (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_gun_laws#United_Kingdom).

The vast majority aren't. Having royalmail post guns and parts is good because it should act as a strong motivator to deliver items properly.

Arg, I have a better idea. Attach a small bomb to all your post, with a first class bomb designed to go off after a day, second class after two days. Only the intended recipient knows the code to defuse it. So if the post is late or misdirected, it will explode.

That'll learn 'em.

Literally the stupidest thread I've read during my admittedly short time here.

I think you're jumping the gun here.
