The seller asked me how I wanted it declared for customs. I told him to declare it’s an antique S&W. Far better they know and inspect than inspect expecting to find something else…He declared it as a clock. I told him to include the FRT document that I provided in the parcel (showing caliber and antique status). Wasn’t there when I opened the box, in fact there was no documentation showing what the gun was at all. Despite the seller verbally declaring he would include it.

Shame on me for trusting him.
