It was back in the day when a barrel with options for a surgeon XL action was rare and a completely custom  proposition.

A while back I tried to send out a barrel from the Paramus PO to see if it could be threaded for chokes. When asked the contents I said it was just a shotgun barrel, not the whole gun. The clerk slammed the window down, dove onto the floor and yelled for a supervisor. The ahole supervisor told me it was illegal to ship gun parts and said he was going to call the cops.  I left and shipped it elsewhere declaring it to be steel tubing going out for machine work. No problem.

Recently, I sent a barrel out in trade for a different barrel and another barrel for choke threading. Again I said it was steel tubing. No problem. The moral of the story when doing anything firearms related here in New Jerky is keep it simple and don't frighten the peasants.

Gun "parts" bar what the BTAF considers "the gun" have no regulation what so ever, USPO or not (Local laws apply ie PRNJ - 16+ round mags is about the only thing that comes to mind even here). Barrel, stock, trigger, bolts, comps, ect..... all the same. Even bullets are GTG. A lot of large reputable vendors ship small parts like triggers and the like by mail vs carrier routinely. Only thing I can think or that's not a gun part but related to would be stuff that goes BANG... live ammo, powder (to reload) or primers. A USPO worker that says differently when you tell him whats in the box when shipping it is as well informed as the LEO that says Hollow Point ammo is illegal to possess in NJ.

Brings back memories of a USPS shipping question a few years ago.

Not allowed to ship primers (in their original factory packaging)

BUT

It's ok to send primed brass through the mail (even loose packed in a flat-rate box)

Denial of service??!?!

 

If you have the time, tell him that he is dead wrong and that denying service is illegal. Also remind them that liable is written but slander is spoken, so they should be careful before declaring that you committed a crime. Then call the cops yourself.

Just got parts yesterday USPS, straight from retailer.  Fastest and cheapest way to get them. USPS clerks are brain dead.  Print your shipping label at home on USPS.com for a discount and just drop it off at the PO, no questions asked. I do it all the time.

I use Stamps.com sue to the volume I send by USPS. My PO has a drop bin inside and is open 24 hours. I rarely go to the counter.

Is it liquid, perishable, fragile? Does it contain lithium batteries?
