Shipping a firearm through FedEx as a Non FFL

[HiredHand]

I've taken them up to the Fedex facility at the Tulsa Airport. I believe you are not supposed to tell them that there is a firearm in the box. It appears that you do declare the contents of the package when you drop it off. Make sure there are no markings on the outside of the package that indicate what the contents are inside.

What I posted is directly from the FedEx website so I bet it's accurate. If you have it boxed and pre-labeled, you don't have to declare anything. Just hand it off to the wonderful person in purple at a FedEx Office location near you.

You're telling me it's not like in the TV shows? How'd they know if I wasn't shipping a dildo? Lol

The dogs would've smelled it.

I think I'll try the tulsa airport location. Kind of burned my nearest store. They know what I looked like. Plus I don't want them to return it or delay it somewhere.

There's no xray of packages. don't know how they determine where or when to have drug sniffing dogs on the conveyors but figure it's not very often.

This... ^^ Colt is the shipper and holds an FFL. No need to overthink this.

Main thing is it needs to be a facility run by Fedex, and not a contracted business that happens to work with them.
