Hi,
I recently shipped a gun via fedex to a gunsmith and he refused the package because it was in a pelican case instead of a cardboard box.
Apparantly shipping it in a pelican style plastic hard case makes the contents "obviously a gun" and is therefore somehow against the law?
So instead we have to ship our weapons inside of fragile and easily damaged cardboard boxes? This makes no sense to me. Can anyone set me straight as to whether or not it's actually against the law the ship a gun in a pelican case or if it's OK? Was the gunsmith right for refusing the package?
