Ship Handgun to myself

[hatidua]

With FedEx, you need to expressly tell them there is a gun in the package (not sure if that is their rules or ATF rules). I shipped a pistol a week ago w/FedEx and clearly told them there was a pistol in the box and there were no troubles.

Yup me too. Have to ship it to yourself via an FFL

Which fedex location have you used/Is there one near westminster? Thanks.

Thanks, I've read that only certain fedex locations accept firearms. Just wanted a confirmation on one that has already worked for somebody.

The closest ones ARE not IS, I swear I went to school.....

Anyways either one of those are Express/Overnight Stations that will ship a firearm. Make sure it is fully packaged and ready to go.

I've shipped a polymer pistol to myself in NC from FedEx in Boulder, on at least one occasion. I simply field stripped it first, and wrapped each piece in cloth, then put them all in the box... no ammo was included, which is obviously an important variable, but I didn't have any trouble with FedEx.

I'v shipped to myself with FedEX and no problem, they could care less about motorcycle parts. Just kidding, I have had no issues, even to CA.

Was it declared as a firearm? Not wanting to be a nimby, just curious.

I honestly don't recall, but knowing my tendency to err toward privacy, I doubt it.

I think the other safeguard, which will cost you more money, is to disassemble it and ship it in two parcels. Then you are shipping parts and not a gun.
