Shipping gun parts

[Flogger23m]

I am wondering if Fedex, UPS or USPS have any policies against shipping gun parts such as the following:

- Brass casings
- Furniture
- Ammo
- Magazines
ect.

Any help appreciated.

Parts, empty brass, stocks, mags etc can ship easily by all three.

Ammo is where it gets sticky as this is considered Hazardous Material.
Usually there is a surcharge, a required packing list of the contents, special labeling, and other restrictions depending on the quantity.

Too many variations to list, it's time to hit their websites for specific info.

Thank you for the reply. I'll check their websites and see if there is any mention about ammo.

I think UPS is the only real solution for ammo. USPS is a no go and I have heard Fed Ex is a real pain to deal with on ammo. With UPS you just mark the box ORM-D and take it to an actual UPS office.
