[When Shipping a Handgun.......]

That does sound high. Last couple times I did handgun I used UPS, but I have account through PayPal and printed my own label, was around the $30 price best I remember. But based on distance of course. I think it might be a bit cheaper than counter price, but not hugely so.

 

Note that Second Day air is not Overnight, which they require for handguns sent from an individual. Also, if going to a larger population area, there is a secondary cheaper overnight called Next Day Air Saver, just guaranteed by end of biz day. Not available to some places though, only the higher priced spread.

 

If you want to PM me the size and weight and address, I'll plug it in and see what it costs, just to compare what they are quoting you.

 

I assume this is going to an FFL? (neither UPS or FedEx will now ship any firearm between non-licensees)

 

Dude, non FFL/LEA can't ship a handgun through USPS period.

I've done it. Wouldn't recommend it, but, done it.

[When Shipping a Handgun.......]

May a nonlicensee ship a firearm through the U.S. Postal Service?  

A nonlicensee may not transfer a firearm to a non-licensed resident of another State. A nonlicensee may mail a shotgun or rifle to a resident of his or her own State or to a licensee in any State. The Postal Service recommends that long guns be sent by registered mail and that no marking of any kind which would indicate the nature of the contents be placed on the outside of any parcel containing firearms. Handguns are not mailable. A common or contract carrier must be used to ship a handgun.

Well, there you go.

[When Shipping a Handgun.......]

I have shipped UPS and I don't recall it being that expensive, but that was a couple of years ago.

 

 

The catch22 with USPS is you cannot take a handgun on USPS property.......but........I do not see why you cannot set up a shipping account online and have your postal delivery person pick up at your home, that's what  your FFL does anyway.

[Carry Permit while on Probation]

I would suggest he sit down and shut up..........for the time being.

 

Once in the system, it takes forever to get out of the system........he's in the 'system'.

 

 

Tell him to finish his probation and keep himself clean 6 months, then try. 

 

Once denied for substance abuse he'll be flagged in the future and he may never get one.

 

 

Just my opinion....as one who has been in the 'system'.

Yeah, that seems fair. 

I'd love to have one. My P09 is great and I'll eventually get a compact but that's out of my price range.

 

 

If you're in the market........looks like a nice one.

[CZ 75B CUSTOM SHOP COMPACT L]

Very nice, always liked the FJs.

[Got my card, going shopping!]

BTW, I will make a recommendation for your wife.

 

 

I bought my 10 year old son a SW M&P 22 Compact. Perfect for him. I paid $299 for it new, with threaded barrel. Comes with a manual safety, holsters are available. Fun to shoot and I'm having no problem finding 22lr now. It is a compact version of a full sized gun. 

 

Get her used to carrying, used to keeping a gun safely, building confidence......then move on to what she really wants.
