    Default How to ship a handgun?

    I need to send in my pistol for some warranty work, but I dont know what courier I can use. I assume usps is out of the question?

    No handguns on the USPS. Fed Ex will only ship over night. UPS is fine with declaration when shipping to factory for warrantee work. I just sent one to CZ for some upgrades. This is what I learned in the process.

    UPS or Fed Ex only.
    they almost always require 2nd day air. (the factory thing mentioned above may be true, ask, I haven't had to use it)
    Has to go to an FFL. (they just ask if it's an FFL, they don't ask for proof)

    You have to go to a hub. You can't go to a store, they won't do it.

    their website will tell you their hub's.

    About $50

    The good thing is the girls at the UPS Colorado Springs hub are very good with firearms and ammo.

    Maybe it's only because they are a retailer but when I bought my Sig from Buds they sent it in a USPS flat rate priority box to my FFL.
