I belive federal law requires you to notify carrier that a firearm is being shipped - I think they aren't suposed to mark the box and must require adult sig. Check ATF regs before shipping.

I think Fed Ex may still allow firearms at cheaper rates then overnight - last time I shipped a gun the dealer didn't want me to use Fed Ex as they were across town from him.
