An individual (as opposed to a licensed dealer) is not supposed to use the U.S. postal service to ship handguns. You are supposed to use a secondary carrier like Fedex or UPS. If the police department is in the same state, you can legally ship it to them, but if you ship and handgun to a different state, you are supposed to ship to an FFL (licencsed dealer).
No. ALL drugs (prescription or nonprescription) are restricted items, and may not be mailed via USPS.
What shipping service was used? If it was mailed via USPS Express Mail, it will be there the next business day. If it was mailed via USPS Priority Mail, then it will be there in about 2 or 3 business days (though this is NOT guaranteed). Items mailed via USPS First Class typically arrive in 2-5 business days (again, not guaranteed). Parcel Post (and similar services like Media Mail or Library Mail) typically arrive in 5-7 business days.
If mailed by the USPS the maximum time would be three days
No, helium balloons cannot be sent via USPS. The United States Postal Service prohibits the mailing of balloons filled with helium or any other gas due to safety concerns, including the risk of bursting and potential hazards during transport. However, deflated balloons can be mailed without issue. Always check the latest USPS regulations for specific guidelines.
Theoretically, according to USPS standards, on Monday.
No, they don't because it is a national holiday.

No... It cannot be sent through USPS to P.O. Boxes.
Packages mailed via USPS may go through a central processing facility, which can sometimes be located in a different state, like New York, due to the logistics of the postal network. This routing helps streamline sorting and distribution, especially if the package is being sent to a location that is not directly adjacent to the origin. Additionally, the USPS employs a system designed to optimize delivery times and efficiency, which can result in unexpected routing.
It depends on the type of package and I would say if it is mailed, or processed at the PS normally will deliver it, during their weekly regular schedule.
Depends on the gun. A rifle or shotgun that is unloaded MAY be mailed in the US Mail. See Domestic Mail Manual, section 14, restricted mailings. A handgun may only be mailed by a licensed dealer or manufacturer. If the OWNERSHIP of the gun is changing, other than by inheritance, and it is going to another state, the gun must be sent to a licensed firearms dealer in the state of the receiver of the gun.
no you would not be arrested
