I have four (4) 1863 Sharps single shot rifles that I want to ship, preferably in a single package - that is, rifles are shipped together but not necessarily in a single shipping box. These rifles do not accept cartridges, so in terms of BATFE they are not firearms. All have 30-inch barrels, making them long compared with most modern cartridge rifles.
Please avoid a reply that is not specific to what I need to know.
Okay, to the questions.
1. What is an efficient procedure to package the rifles, again, singly or as a single group of four, including identifying shipping container satisfactory for the job.
2. Would I be better off to have a third party pack the rifles?
3. If packing by a third party is your solution of choice, please identify whom I should hire? I am in Missoula County, Montana. There are many gun stores, at least one rifle manufacturer, at least two gunsmiths, UPS franchise stores, a FedEx store, and probably more potential third-party possibilities I have omitted.
