Best Answer

In the US, an air rifle that is unloaded MAY be mailed by US mail. An air PISTOL that has enough energy to be used as a weapon may not be mailed except by a Federal Firearms Licensed Dealer. This is covered in the Domestic Mail Manual, under Restricted Mailings. The Postal Service has a different definition of firearm than the BATFE. The orginial poster stated that the post office could not open a package- that is not correct- they can- and do.

Can you mail a gun through UPS?

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.
