I am going to be shipping a rifle to another state and I was just wondering how this all works.  From what I read, I can ship it via the USPS and it does not have to go priority mail.  I have to ship it to a FFL, though.  If any of this is wrong, please let me know.  When I take the gun to the post office, what do I tell them?  Do I need to disclose that I am shipping a firearm?  Are there any special forms I need to fill out?  Thanks.

Yes, you can ship it USPS. Yes, it needs to go to an FFL (if different state). No, no forms to fill out, and AFAIK you do not need to declare as long as you are not shipping ammo or hazardous material.


JUST DO NOT MARK IT AS A FIREARM.


Also, send it with signature required (adult).

Thanks very much for the quick replies.  I appreciate it.
