Need help! With French Gendarmerie…………….
Hi all. I am not writing this seeking sympathy……………….I should have known better. I sold what I still believe to be display F1 Grenade fuse & handle mounted on a marble base & with the manufacturers logo either side. Basically a desk paperweight advertising the company which I think dated to the 1930’s & had green felt on the base(I have attached photos). I am well aware of the perils of live ordnance not least sending it by post(& the penalties). I examined the whole of the central metal part & it is made from solid metal & has been turned-there is no join. The item was sold in May & there were 2 gendarmes on my doorstep this morning explaining it had shown up on the X-Ray detectors at CdeG Airport. It doesn’t matter whether it was live or not-they think it was. Luckily I have the photos still as the listing is no longer accessible. I think I am in the sh*t……………..any advice would be gratefully received.
Many thanks Rob
