Correct. Let's look at USPS Publication 52 § 432.2, my emphasis underlined:
Quote:
Handguns and other firearms capable of being concealed on the person are nonmailable unless mailed between the parties listed in this section, after the filing of an affidavit or statement described in 432.22 or 432.24, and are subject to the following... [regs about C&R licensees, air guns, parts, and mailers follows]
Between = both the sender and recipient must be "authorized persons" per the ensuing § 432.21; the list basically consists of FFL dealers, importers, and manufacturers, along with certain military, LE, USPS, and gov't security personnel.
