Ask the seller if they have anyone in Calais/Dunquerque, Le Havre, or Brest/Roscoff, pick it yourself from there.
You can also send it in two or three shipments. The wood shoulderstock and frame on one, the lock and brass fittings in another, and the barrel in a third.
BBs are relatively easy to disassemble. In the worst case, send the musket in two parts, the lock in one, the rest in another. It's no longer a weapon.
BTW, make sure it's unloaded. I have heard of wallpieces, hanging for 2 centuries. that have gone off when played with. Also, have the musket cleaned with gunsolvent, BP makes sentry dogs go nuts at airports and other entrance points...
