Re: Rifle Shipping Costs
WOW!! That's crazy $200 each way with same airline too. I can't tell you what size his case was but I'm guessing it must have been smaller. Do you know what the cutoff size limit is? I know he had a full size rifle (Sig Sauer M400) and it also had mags and ammo in the case.
At $400 I understand why your looking to ship … Good luck.If you tell the truth you don't have to remember anything

Re: Rifle Shipping Costs
By federal regulation you CAN ship a long gun to yourself. You can ship it USPS in your name to the address where you are going to pick it up. The person(s) at the address CANNOT open the package. I've sent a rifle to Phoenix, AZ package weighing 11lbs 6oz, insured for $1400 by USPS Priority Mail, signature required and it cost $65.00.
I've know people that have sent shotguns to themselves in care of the hotel they were going to be staying at with no problems. They contacted the hotel and arranged everything before hand - had no problems.Ron USAF Ret E-8 FFL01/SOT3 NRA Benefactor Member

Re: Rifle Shipping Costs
Yup, its a little crazy. Basically if the W x H x L added up is less than 62in you can check it for free. Once you pass that total, its $200. An AR15 can prob easily be torn down to fit the non over sized checked bag requirements.
Yea this seems to be my conclusion as well, which is great cause it saves me a lot of hassle and money.
Thanks guys!Una Salus Victis Nullam Sperare Salutem
