Shipping ammunition using UPS

The absence of a requirement is just that.

Absofrigginlutely.........and that is the hardest thing in the world to get across to the average person.

What more are you looking for? Are you looking for something that says it doesn't have to go to a dealer? It doesn't say it has to go to a dealer. The absence of a requirement is just that.

I see. You were looking for something like the official UPS idiot's guide to shipping firearms/ammo. Yes, that would make life easy. But since 9/11, DHS, and the fact terrorists change the way they ship bombs, etc. every week (think Lithium batteries, PETN and toner cartridges), their requirements are ever-changing. Too many lawyers, too much liability for one guide. I too wish it could be that easy.

ya. I think something like that used to be on the UPS site and I was trying to find it. Guess that's gone. Ill just print out the CFR sections to go along with the TOS.

Thanks for this information. I'm loading up some match loads for my dad for his birthday and will be shipping them.
