Posting pyro?

[ProPain]

Hi, I'm selling 2 tld mx 80s, a version 1 and a version 2. Could someone tell me if I can post the chargers and bangs as ATM I'm only advertising as collected only because I'm not sure about posting pyros

Thanks

The primers (the little brass bits that the hammer hits) and the carboard pyro tubes themselves are considered "explosives", and so can't be sent royal mail.
however as I understand it, the actual MX80, without the pyro component, isn't restricted.
But, convincing the royal mail of that is a very different question. Especially if it goes anywhere near an x-ray machine or anything, all they'll see is a grenade, complete with working mechanism.

Not sure. I know UPS will carry it for buisness customers (since that's how my mate gets his) but I don't know what the rules are for private individuals.

I thought you where selling?

And I beleive the buisness would need an account with UPS, i.e. they would need to use UPS on a regular basis. But honestly I'd suggest getting in touch with UPS/other courriers, as they are best placed to advise you on what they will/will not take.
