I sold a spam can of ammo on GB. It's been a few years since i have shipped ammo. What's the process? I know I'm limited to FedEx and UPS via their hub. And are there any tips for shipping it cheaper? ETA: I'm a home based FFL |

Pirate ship is cheaper than buying in store. Dont forget the HM label. Attached File https://www.ups.com/us/en/support/shipping-support/shipping-special-care-regulated-items/hazardous-materials-guide/how-to-ship-ammunition.page |

I have a UPS account and select flat rate shipping from the menu when filling the label out. Not sure Pirate Ship gives you that option. I probably shipped 10 spam cans two months ago, none were over $30.00, including insurance and signature. Ammo isn't considered hazmat. |

Are there states that one cant ship ammo to? Eg. CALF, NJ, MA etc? This list seems to highlight areas like that https://hopmunitions.com/ammo-shipping-restrictions-by-state/ |
