[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 1992413, member: 63925"] UPS at first would not take bullets for shipment until I told them they were shipped to me by UPS and call their corporate guru to "confirm" as ok. The local franchise owners really are not versed in legal requirements at all so the easy answer is NO. So I just demand they call UPS support and "usually" they do so they can document they were "told" by UPS corporate it was OK. This person was anti-gun so she was not too happy at all with the answer. Of course I didn't help when I told her I would bring her a copy of the Constitution to read in her leisure time. And yes, the package got there in perfect condition. BATF language is clear, USPS can accept shipment from unlicensed to a licensed person for a long-gun. Maybe carry a photocopy of the BATF page as evidence so they can also state they did not make the decision. Or just ask for the postmaster. I do agree with RockyMtnMt that likely anti-gun sentiment is driving the position is why you need to ask for the postmaster. The postmaster knows the requirements and also knows complaints against them doesn't fly well anymore.
