You have to ship it priority overnight.

Priority overnight, must declare it is a firearm to the clerk but cannot have any markings on the box to note that it is a firearm and you must do the shipping at a FedEx hub.
I just shipped something back and forth from SA, no problems at all. |

That's what I was afraid of. That takes the shipping cost from about $35 to around $160. |

So don't use FedEx. UPS still ships guns.

Only handguns need to go overnight. Rifles and shotguns can still go ground.

I've actually been able to ship both long guns, and handguns 2 day through FedEx. I prefer them over UPS! |

As per FedEx's own rules:
If you use regular FedEx service, it must be priority overnight. If you use FedEx ground service, it must be a rifle or a shotgun (no pistols). If you violate FedEx's rules, it's not against the law, but FedEx can (and will) refuse to pay any insurance claim. |

Nah, for long guns use the post office. Good prices. Good service. No hassle. |

I've got a 20" HBar AR-15 and a pistol in a Pelican 1720 case. It's 40-50 pounds total. Looks like I'll have to seperate them. |
