I will never use UPS to ship a gun again, as long as current situations exist. USPS is the way to go. My little rural post office postmistress asks me only one question ......., the one about there being hazardous materials inside, yada, yada, yada. I truthfully reply "No, ma'am", and it's on.
BTW, I recently learned that if you don't want it to go by air, send it Registered Mail (not Priority Mail) and it will go by ground all the way. It will be slower, and more expensive, but it's on a truck, not a plane where it is subjected to airline "baggage handlers".
