As a thread diversion - he was talked to by a couple of members of staff, and allowed to continue Noting that he took ‘care’ to clarify which areas were public vs private, and then decided to entirely disregard that when the path came to an end He also opted to film, highlight and publish the access controls which aids anti ‘audit’ claims of using auditing as an excuse to conduct hostile reconnaissance. Like many if not most auditors he says he is filming for general interest because he has seen their lorries around. Why not just be honest and open that it’s for YouTube monetisation ? …. and near the end a little bit of ignorance / bigging up that a container tamper seal means that it contains ‘high value’ goods. It just means that (provided you document the tag number) that the container hasn’t been opened since the last check

The worst can always happen, which is why you want to minimise its chances. If for any reason, in a near-impossible event where you get charged for the VRCA import, you can say, you provided a defence, and they didn't check it!

Best laid intentions. All of this is dependent on the person dealing with it being well informed enough to know what to do. Most are not, no amount of extraneous paperwork is going to prevent it.

Ok, if UPS (or other couriers) are the ones checking for defence and seizing parcels (can UPS connect to UKARA database?), surely all the more reason to pre-attach the declaration form. Because that declaration form has the defence. And if, for any reason, the pre-attached declaration was missed by HMRC/UPS/other couriers, and it goes to the HMRC/border force/police, or firearms officer or whatever. They look at the parcel, they see the big words of "VCRA IMPORT SEE DECLARATION", they will look for the attached declaration again, and checks the RIF, checks the UKARA#, they see your defence, they releases the parcel. And if, somehow, all these people have missed both the big label of "VCRA IMPORT SEE DECLARATION" and the pre-attached declaration form, you will have a better case if you decide to e.g. file a notice of claim or a complain to them or challenge the legality of the seizure. I don't see the downsides of this. I think it is best practice. This can prevent customs police coming to your home.

Everything that EvilMonkee wrote is correct, & couriers, such as ups, face large fines if they fail to adhere to the rules set by hmrc (& ukba).

First, you gotta stop that condescending tone of yours. Second, I think you could have well made this up, do you work there? Do you have source? Thirdly, that is besides the point, you still want to stick the declaration on the parcel, so it won't get missed, by anyone. Your entire argument started with this method won't work for UPS. If UPS is seizing the parcel as you said, then there is no problem. Anecdotally (from this forum) UPS seems to be always asking for it anyway, so pre-attaching it will surely smooth things out, as a matter of best practice.

Oof! I always tape any of my split grip CO2 revolvers before play as if anyone is capable of loosing half a grip it's me. If you got it from a UK retailer I'd definitely ask them to see if they can replace. Off to Wilmslow for my sins today so I'm popping into Tangodown to ask about trades.

Let me spell this out for you in terms you will be able to understand. 1. UPS (or other parcel company) take receipt of your package as part of their business as a parcel company. 2. Another part of their business is acting as a customs agent on behalf of HM Customs. 3. They go through the Customs processes on behalf of HM Customs, levy the appropriate charges etc. 4. This all occurs simultaneous with their handling of your parcel and they have these magnificent things called bonded warehouses were they can store all these imported goods legally till the charges are paid. 5. If something comes to them in their capacity as a courier for which someone has no defence (ie a RIF without a UKARA) they act in their other capacity as a Customs agent (on behalf of HM Customs) and seize the article. Now, all this doesn't occur with every courier. Royal Mail/Parcelforce actually use HM Customs to do this but UPS do it all. This happens because otherwise HM Customs would be inundated with parcels and everything would slow to a crawl. Not too hard to understand is it?

You too are correct that TM can be innovators in that everyone else is copying them, but that innovation is, imo, at least partly driven by competition. It could be argued that it was the rise of the Chinese clones which pushed TM to release the NGRS system. Back when I started playing 21 years ago your choice for AEGs was TM, Classic Army if you wanted to flex on the poors or occasionally ICS. Also you were looking at £30 per magazine. New players can get all the essentials for way less than it cost me Another reason I like having a larger choice of makes is that it opens up the game to a wider market giving us a louder voice if some politician wants to make a name for themselves by wanting to expand on the VCRA
