I have just found out that, apparently, broadheads are illegal in London. Therefore I was told that you cannot bring broadheads with you even if you are just transferring. Anyone know about this? How should I get broadheads to TZN? Mail? Any help or info appreciated.

Sheesh - it's a worldwide conspiracy! I was just told last Friday that it is illegal to transit Amsterdam with a bow and arrows.

I'm investigating shipping them direct to my outfitter's rep in TZ. Probably a lot cheaper if it's just the BHs that have to be shipped!

Good luck!

Thanks, I wonder how long it will take to ship something to Tanzania?

If it's anything like Namibia, postcards took 6 weeks to get to London.

Does Fedex or UPS go to TZN?

Also Consider DHL (Dewey, Huey and Lewey ) They are VERY Global.

Hi,
Can you tell us your source for this information?
I am ignorant on this topic, but a quick look on ebay.co.uk (UK version) shows that broadheads are sold for crossbows anyway.
Perhaps the confusion relates to putting the broadheads in your checked luggage or a locked archery case?

I was in contact with a very nice guy from http://www.gunrunner.cc/gunrunner.htm

He said they were illegal in the UK but is trying to confirm with customs and security. I am no longer going through London but he said he would let me know anyway once he gets a response. Will post when I hear something.
