Limits On The Transshipment of Firearms
British Airways is authorized by certain transshipment licenses to carry sporting weapons (SWP) and in some instances munitions of war (MUW) when used for sporting purposes (i.e. .50 caliber hunting rifles). The rules, however, have changed. As of January 2009, British Airways says you are longer permitted to carry MUW's to certain countries, including hunting destinations such as Tanzania and Mongolia.
