Kite man's rifle delivery shock

A man who ordered parts for a kite buggy was shocked when he received two Winchester rifles instead.
Andy Coptcoat, from Berkshire, ordered two steel tubes through Bristol-based Atmosphere Kites, who forwarded the order to its suppliers in France.
'I thought the shape of the package looked strange and when I checked it, the two firearms were inside,' he said.
A spokesman for carrier Business Post, blamed human error, saying there had been a mix-up with labels.
