Insurance on long gun ship

I’m buying a substantial Long gun from another member here and it’s getting shipped inside a pelican case. My main question is, is there one shipper better than the other for Shipping a $10,000 rifle with accessories and does anyone know if there’s a difference in shipping cost and insuring that high value from one shipper to another that somebody has used recently . And any other knowledgeable feedback anybody wants to give to make this go smoothly much appreciated.

I shipped a 125 year old factory prototype rifle made in Danzig for repairs. It is the only known example extant, and I brought it back from Afghanistan. I used registered mail for this.

I will only use USPS registered mail. There is absolute accountability and if it goes missing the exact person whose possession it was in gets put under the question. Thus, things magically don't get lost. Huh, it's not that hard I guess.

Normal trafic , fake BS

As someone who has experienced Teheran first hand , normal traffic in rush hours is 8-10 cars abreast on what is a 6 lane highway. Teheran is not a modern skyscraper metropole ,relatively low build, so its huge with large suburbs 15+mio folks live there huge traffic in and out daily.
On a conference i attended in relation to Belt and road , they were explaining how its a jung nation with median age of 35 or something , an when i told them its probably because of traffic as once you turn 50 you get run over, they did not look too amused :rolleyes:

Road rules are absolutely optional , trafic lights just sugestions. One day i was walking trough city center and when trying to cross as a pedestrian i quickly discovered , no one gives a fuck about trafic lights and i could wait till tommorw to cross a road , so faited for first groups of chicks crossing and hoped over in their cover , calculating they are not going ro run them over. :eek:

Going of Teheran airport to Hotel in 2:00 in the morning taxi driver drove like his Mercedes badge was meant to align with lines on the road , near empty 6+ lane road and they all drove on the lines midway both lanes.

Forgot some papers on the airport while doing a visa , they had no name on them or anything indicating they are mine were also writen in my native language , in the morning IRGC delivered them to my hotel room.
