So when did FedEx change their gun shipping?

They can use a USPS bulk rate shipping box ( med $17.95) plus their FFL fee of $20. No muss, no fuss, add insurance for expensive rigs. My guys pack well, Insure and track. I find it’s the best way to go, with all the problems with UPS and FedEx shipping guns.

That is the law. I would wrap it up good in bubble wrap, put it in a big box and ship it to whatever gun shop you plan to. If they ask tell them it is precision machine parts which is exactly what it is.

Two years ago when sending my revolver the FedEx counter person told me it was their policy to not ship handguns from an unlicensed party and that I would need an FFL to send it for me. They also told me that I was required to disclose if it was a handgun. I just knew that arguing with the person would do no good.

I took my box, went home and removed the cylinder and grip frame putting the parts in bags. Went back the next day. When they asked if it was a handgun I said it was gun parts.

Before this I had sent handgus to an FFL without issue.
