Yes, but let's be sure we are using the same words-
UPS, FedEx, and the US Postal service ship firearms, antique firearms, reproduction firearms, and replica firearms.
Goods entering the US will need to pass through US Customs, no matter who the shipping carrier.
Firearms are guns that discharge a bullet from a chemical explosion, and are made after 1898. They must be shipped to an importer.
Guns made before 1899, or muzzleloading guns (even if new)are Antique Firearms.
Reproduction firearms are a modern day copy of a real gun. They are treated the same as the original gun. If they shoot bullets, they are legally firearms (unless muzzleloaders)
REPLICA guns are a non-shooting, will not chamber real ammo, cannot be MADE to shoot copy of a real gun. They are not firearms.
Firearms, and reproduction firearms must be shipped TO a Federal Firearms Licensee in your home state (dealer). Antique firearms, and non-firing replicas may be shipped directly to you. Modern handguns (real kind) may not be mailed in the US mail except by dealers.
Yes they ship Pellet guns. I have had several delivered this way.
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.
That all depends on the individual. I know grown ups who should never be allowed to play with any type of gun.
UPS, FedEx or US Postal Service. However, the frame of a handgun cannot be mailed.
Ship and charge the receivers ups account number
They guarantee to ship items out within 24 hours and they ship through UPS.
no
packages
Rifles and shotguns may legally be MAILED in the US mail. It is known as a "restricted" mailing. Be SURE they are unloaded. Handguns may not be mailed except by a licensed dealer. If you are not a delaer they may be returned to the manufacturer by UPS or FedEx. They require that it be shipped by Next Day Air, and cannot be sent from a UPS staore- take it to the UPS Hub.
They do ship travelling packages on Sundays such as air flight or by truck but does not deliver on Sundays.
Personally I would ship it via one of the major carriers - FedEx or UPS. If you send it via the US mail you have to declare the contents of the package - which in my view is NOT a good idea.
You can mail a BB gun via UPS.
