Ran into this conundrum about 6 months ago. I called the national UPS and was told their nationwide policy is to not ship "any" firearms including black powder replicas. Basically I was being told they would not ship it even if I took it to the main hub.

I took the BP pistol to USPS and they shipped it no problem. Yes, they knew what was in the box.
