Need to ship a Ruger Mark IV barrel for gunsmithing. On the Rugers the barrel is serialized, so considered a handgun. Said gunsmith is an 07/02 FFL. What's the best way for me to do this?
USPS is a no-go on handguns (from private individuals)
UPS? their website still says yes but i've glazed over recent talk that says avoid them
FEDEX? their website gives two answers, one part of their site says non-FFLs can't ship firearms period. the other part says individual can ship TO an FFL only.
I really don't want to think that I need to take this to a local gun shop just for them to ship it to the gunsmith.
Anyone have any experience in this area?
