Shipping Guns via FedEx Now Limited to FFLs & Gov’t Agencies
IMPORTANT: FedEx policies now prohibit regular persons from shipping ANY firearms through FedEx. The shipping company now limits firearms shipping privileges to FFL-holders and certain government agencies. NOTE: This is not a new change for 2022. The restrictions went into effect in Q3 2021. However, the great majority of gun owners may not be aware of this restrictive policy, because it does represent a major change from the past. SEE FedEx Firearms Shipping Rules.
This represents a significant FedEx rule change that severely restricts the gun shipping options available to normal Americans who do not have Federal Firearms Licenses. FedEx policies state: “Nonlicensee shippers — Nonlicensees are prohibited from shipping firearms with FedEx.”
In years past, a regular gun owner (without an FFL) could ship both long guns and handguns from primary FedEx locations, provided you disclosed the contents. That was important for returning guns to manufacturers for warranty work, or shipping guns to a gunsmith. Now the options are limited. Long guns (rifles, shotguns) can still be shipped via the U.S. Postal Service and via UPS. However, the USPS prohibits shipping handguns. So the only viable alternative for private individuals to ship handguns (pistols and revolvers), is through UPS. And even with UPS, some affiliate locations will not handle firearms.

Is anyone surprised that a communist Biden regime would restrict firearms rights? We can thank the sensitive ones who were offended by Trump’s personality and mean tweets for this and many more infringements. Those who say they believe in the 2A, but refused to vote for the R candidate are responsible for this infringement and many more to come. Thanks a pant load!
Despite having Federal in the name, FedEx is a corporation based in Memphis, Tennessee. So anyone blaming Biden for this is a moron. The United States Postal Service still ships guns…
