[QUOTE="scrapboat, post: 237352, member: 5669"] I will say this about the USPS. I am active in traditional black powder fire arms, like 18th century flintlocks. Being classified as a relic or non gun they can be shipped through the mail by individuals to most states. Many custom blackpowder gunmakers ship USPS only. It seems that a lot of the blackpowder items shipped by UPS arrived damaged consistantly. Damage like rough handling and ripped boxes were common with UPS but most disturbing were boot prints on damaged rifle boxes as if they were stomped. When a Kentucky long rifle is in a box its pretty obvious what it is. The USPS on the other hand has not had any of the odd damage like UPS. Fed Ex will not ship anything firearm related. [/QUOTE]
