Best Answer

You can SHIP a gun by UPS. Gun must be unloaded, and you will need to take it to a UPS hub, not a UPS store. If the ownership of the gun is changing, and the gun is being sent to another state, it will need to be shipped TO a licensed gun dealer in the other state. Handguns must be shipped Next Day Air, which is rather expensive (around $75) Rifles and shotguns (no handguns) can be MAILED by US Mail- same restrictions. Handguns may not be mailed in US Mail except by a licensed dealer or manufacturer.
