Was at the PO filling out some pmo when a man came in with a large box. Counter girl asks what in the box , he reply's a broken down shotgun going back to the maker. She jumped back and said get that box out of here. Post master runs up and backs her up. I jumped in and said no mam you can't do that go check your regs and you will find it is on the list that can be shipped by the PO. The man said the same thing. So PM ran back and short time later giving us both a look that would kill said to counter girl "go ahead and take it" New PM but what a bitch and dumb as a bucket of hammers. MM

Re: post office know it all's
I ran into the same thing about a year ago. I took a rifle that i had sold into the post office to mail. When they asked what it contained, I told them it was a rifle. Everybody within hearing distance looked at me like I was a terrorist. I had a copy of the rules from the ATF website but that wasn't good enough.
I took it to another post office, the Post Master said is that legal to ship and I told him it was. He said I don't have a problem with it as long as it is legal. You just have to find a Post Master that is not anti-gun.

Re: post office know it all's
Work in the shooting industry and it's amazing the number of ATF agents we run into who don't know their own regs and rules. Demanding that dealers have copies of our ffl when it's not required, to the point of threatening to pull their licenses. Once a year my boss will read through all of their regs just so we can correct them.
There's another bunch of hammers for you, and these have some pretty blunt heads.

Re: post office know it all's
never tell them whats in the box. Parts is parts, and liquids is liquids. Get yourself an online postage account and print your own labels. Box them up, and take them to the post office. Ask simply,"Where do I put prepaid boxes at?" They will either take it, or show you where to put it. Walk away.
Don't volunteer information when you know by regs they have to ship it. Know your stuff. I have used the USPS for years and have shipped the world over with no issues except a few broken glass topped humidors that were already broken from the manufacturer and sent UPS

Re: post office know it all's
When mailing a firearm you must inform the shipper or post office bimbo. The box cannot be marked as containing a firearm. The post office has to ship it priority mail.
I had the same experience last year. Small town, bright lights, Saturday night, and Lydia is at the counter of the post office. Her small eyes sunk deep in her fat. Dumb as a bag of.....dogshit.
(that way I am in no trouble with the hammer mafia)

Re: post office know it all's
I printed off a copy of their regs and take it with me when shipping a firearm . Their regs are probably over a 1000 pages and it seems unreasonable to expect people to memorize the entire thing so I bring along the part that's important to me and look at it as a teaching opportunity . Fear of firearms makes a lot of people in this country behave unreasonably and the folks at the Post Office are no exception .
<span style="font-weight: bold">

While the online account is smart, marking frajeelee on any container that will be handled by shipping or airline personnel is right up there in the "strong like bull, smart like tractor" category.

Re: post office know it all's
I think you are obligated to inform the shipper the contents are a firearm.
I don't believe it's enough to just know it it legal and ship it.
That is either UPS/FedEx/USPS rules, or federal firearm shipping regs, but I just shipped my first rifle on Tuesday night and checked all three and all definitely said you have to tell them its a gun.
I was extra careful because I reside in the Peoples' Republic of Chicago.

Re: post office know it all's
I kinda' like living here...last time I took a rifle in to the PO, I informed the lady of what it was and she asked what kind and caliber. We had a nice discussion about the relative merits of the caliber of the rifle I was sending versus her rifle's caliber for elk hunting. (I was sending a 338 Win Mag, she had a 375 H&H.) She pointed out the picture she had hanging on the partition of her last kill, a real beauty of a six point bull. A little different than your experience.

Would give my carrier a lot if he did house calls. Last mail we had was the end of September. Occasionally get air drops but outgoing is tough that way.

Re: post office know it all's
And what ever you do, don't tell the Postal folks it's a "Sniper" rifle. With over 45,000 users on Sniper's Hide, the chances are high that you will get a Hider behind the counter who will lecture you about the difference between "Sniper" and "Tactical" rifles. That's worse than eyes sinking into the fat

Re: post office know it all's
I am not making this up: Wednesday night at a UPS Store one of the employes tried to argue with me about sending out gun parts. I told him as long as it was not an assembled firearm it was good to go and the owner of that store was a friend of our family. He always has given me the go ahead to ship. I was trying to ship a stock out to a guy that had bought it from me here. This guy got more and more aggressive as the conversation went, I wasnt even working with him I was working with a young girl that seemed to be willing to just call the owner and ask him. But captain loud mouth just wanted to keep talking his shit. I told him if he had an issue with my request to ship to run to the back room and grab a chair and Id be gone when it was packed up.
He threatened me with physical harm and I then let him know if he wanted to make threats against me to step out from his register and try to run his mouth less. He laughed and called the owner in which he was told it was fine to ship the parts. I grabbed up my box and said no thanks I will take my business elsewhere. He had to get his last comment in of "well I wont sit here and kiss your ass for your business" thats when I called the owner and he was fired while I stood there, probably had something to do with me having him on the phone the whole time and he got to hear every word of his employees rant.
Justice was served.

I was trying to ship a stock out to a guy that had bought it from me here. This guy got more and more aggressive as the conversation went, I wasnt even working with him I was working with a young girl that seemed to be willing to just call the owner and ask him. But captain loud mouth just wanted to keep talking his shit. I told him if he had an issue with my request to ship to run to the back room and grab a chair and Id be gone when it was packed up.
He threatened me with physical harm and I then let him know if he wanted to make threats against me to step out from his register and try to run his mouth less. He laughed and called the owner in which he was told it was fine to ship the parts. I grabbed up my box and said no thanks I will take my business elsewhere. He had to get his last comment in of "well I wont sit here and kiss your ass for your business" thats when I called the owner and he was fired while I stood there, probably had something to do with me having him on the phone the whole time and he got to hear every word of his employees rant.
Justice was served.
