I took delivery of a vintage Walther LP53 air pistol today.
It was delivered by Parcel Force.
It was also delivered cocked with a pellet in the breech
Fortunately, the seller texted me to say he may have left a pellet in.
I asked if it was cocked too. He apologised saying he didn't know!
Forewarned, I opened the parcel with extra caution and safely discharged the pistol.
Potential for a serious accident there. Quel nob.
You are James Bond and I claim my $5 or €5 (since Stirling is worthless)

That's fightin' talk ther sonnie
I can see my house in that picture...
Depressingly I can see my office there...house is out of shot.
Well if we’re talking depression I live near Didcot. That looks great to me.
I bet quite a few people who receive guns in the post "discharge" themselves immediately.
“discharge” themselves immediately.
I was cleaning it and it went off in hand.
FWIW this is a fascinating channel if you're interested in the history of firearms:
