skeet,

I agree with you, many Postal clerks do not know the Postal Regulations contained in the Domestic Mail Manual (DMM) regarding mailability of firearms. I can't do classes on the regulations I helped write since I am retired.

My only point in my prior post was to help good folks avoid legal hassles about mailing guns. I suggest anyone wishing to mail a gun go to their local Post Office and read Section 140 of the DMM which closely follows the Federal Gun Control Act of 1968. Long guns are mailable, but handguns have certain restrictions that I suggest all folks follow closely. I have not read the DMM lately, so read and be guided accordingly. Be well.

Adam
