What FFLs are you using to ship guns and what do they charge for this service?

[Brass]

So you don't declare it as a firearm?

Of course I do. In order to avoid the problems I listed if you try to bypass the UPS/Fedex shipping policies.

Edit: I should have said "Of course I *did*". I can't ship UPS/Fedex since I don't have an FFL.
I have to go through FFLs to ship handguns and USPS to ship long guns.
