Best Answer

A nonlicensee may not transfer a firearm to a non-licensed resident of another State. A nonlicensee may mail a shotgun or rifle to a resident of his or her own State or to a licensee in any State. The Postal Service recommends that long guns be sent by registered mail and that no marking of any kind which would indicate the nature of the contents be placed on the outside of any parcel containing firearms. Handguns are not mailable. A common or contract carrier must be used to ship a handgun.

Can you mail separate components of a rifle?

You can mail an entire rifle or shotgun thru the US Mail- it must be unloaded. You will find that in chapter 14 of the Domestic Mail Manual, under Restricted Mailings. IF the owership of the rifle is being changed, and it is going to another state, it must go TO a firearms dealer in that state.
