Guns in the Mail

[Adam Helmer]

Kusko,

What type of "Gun" do you contemplate shipping? Since I helped write the current USPS regulations on Mailability, it makes a difference what you are intending to mail. If it is a long gun, rifle or shotgun, is unloaded, and properly packaged, it is mailable.

Skeet: Handguns are UNMAILABLE MATTER for other than licensed dealers, police departments, and the few others listed in the Postal Regulations. Your cute "Two box" scenario is a violation of Federal Law since the receiver is the "Firearm" Per 18 USC and a Felony. I used to work those cases and it is a crime that will, upon conviction, make the violator a prohibited person from ANY future gun ownership. Savvy?
