Insurance on long gun ship

[raalfano]

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.

My personal take.

Every carrier will attempt to fuck you on a firearms claim.

If you don't already, have a separate 2A policy/rider that covers your stuff regardless where it is at.

I don't trust anyone that much, if I'm spending 10K, I'm driving to pick it up.

$10k is out of my trust zone on shipping things or not seeing it in person. Fly in, face to face, check it with airline and fly home. Rent a car and drive it home if you don't trust airlines. They don't lose guns in my experience.
