Shipping Ammo
Okay I read the sticky on it. From what I get from it and what I have been told over the years,
shipping live ammo via the USPS is illegal.
Then my question is; if it is illegal then how are the big sellers on the auction side
getting away with shipping ammo via USPS?
They state they ship USPS and the shipping price they are giving is for Priority Mail.
I know because I know what UPS charges and there is no way I can charge $6 - $7 less to match their shipping price
on the same ammo via UPS.
I now understand why we do not sell as much ammo even though our price for the auction is within line with the rest.
Our shipping cost kills it because we ship within the law.

What carrier(s) can I ship ammo through? Do you have to declare what is in the shipment? Just need some info on shipping laws governing ammunition. Also, I am not a FFL holder. How can I ship a firearm legally? 0 -
No you can not. It must go UPS/Fedex ground. 0 -
Another NO vote. Brass, yes. Bullets, yes. Live ammo, NO. 0 -
Still "NO", just like a few hours ago when you asked the first time.

No, you'll have to use UPS or FedEx...Which brings you right back to square one. 0 -
