I never cared one way or another if he paid or not, my daughter needs the braces and she'll get them. However, I don't want to give him any ammunition to use against us in court when we wind up there again. My wife and I will allow him to violate the decree all he wants, it just helps us out in court.
If being the good guy in court, or in life, is important, then doing like wyoelk suggests and agreeing to get the rifle to him in compliance with applicable laws at his expense, or, at least, offering to do so, helps in that goal. Life's too short to waste energy and money playing mind games with negative people.
