Weapons are not allowed to be shipped in commercial mail by non-FFL holders. It is considered dangerous for the mailman to even carry it in a box.

You can ship handguns by UPS or Fedex, however, under most circumstances, they must be shipped to a dealer or to a manufacturer.

You may ship a handgun to yourself by UPS or FedEx. Both require next day Air, which is rather expensive. You may not MAIL a handgun by US Mail unless you are a dealer.
