[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 1089453, member: 27307"] engineer40, Fear of making a mistake causes most of us to overwork what is written on the ATF website. Address TO: Your Name c/o Your Friend's Name (in care of) His Address The Post Office doesn't ask about shipping rifles or shotguns, in fact they have told everyone I know that they DON'T want to know and it should not be in or on the label. The wording called into question has to be read as one sentence all together: "Persons other than the owner should not open the package AND take possession of the firearm." They will be taking possession of the package for you but they cannot open it. I've done this a hundred times if I've done it once and it works every time and it's perfectly legal. This works especially well if you have to fly and don't want to hassle with TSA, although I've never had a problem with TSA when transporting a rifle on a plane either. Regards. [/QUOTE]
