I m a private gun owner and i shipped several times mainly rifles thru my local US Postal here in Houston. NOw this am I went and cashed in the MO payed to me by the buyer and after which I showed the lady (not the usual one who processed me before, she knows her stuff) the buyer's FFL dealer's copy. She seem very ignorant, went back for few minutes and had me waited a good 7 plus minutes. She came back with a big ledger showing that firearms should be shipped thru a local dealer. i explained to her I had been shipping rifles here before and is legal to do so . SHe quoted somethign from the manual that its not specific whether its a rifle or small arm, that she definitely cannot accept the package. I was disgusted. ANyway I went thru UPS. No hassle at all , no bull rules.
Now was she just making here opinion or this is a sign of anti gun approach of some USPS employees, I cannot understand . It depends on the person you talk with or what? Anybody here can show me where the USPS regs are to shipping firearms, handguns and longarms. Private owners and FFL dealers.
Im planning to call and clear this up with the branch manager tomorrow. i jsut didnt want to sound amidst people waiting inline while at the Post Office. Thanks
