In recent months my local UPS terminal stopped excepting walk-in shipments (firearms shipped to an FFL dealer and sporting arms ammo shipped to an individual where allowed, etc.).
Last week I wanted to ship a firearm to an FFL dealer in a mid-western state. So instead of using the post office which as an individual with no FFL I still can do (but not ammo),
I used Pirate Ship to buy the UPS shipping label.
I found it worked very well and was much, much cheaper than shipping through a 3 rd party shipper which does not except firearms from a non FFL holder.
It was a 2 day shipment.
I have no financial interest in Pirate Ship but will use it in the future.
Shipping a Firearm
Re: Shipping a Firearm
Jim I started using Pirate ship for my business as well as personal shipping needs a few years ago. Many times I have saved more than half of the normal rate.
To me it’s a no brainer. The item is shipped by UPS or USPS, you till have the same choices for how fast they arrive and you are able to buy insurance if needed. For just a few dollars more they will have your item picked up. I like this option as many of the local UPS offices will not except firearm shipments.
Items are simple to track. I have saved over $1000 in shipping cost since I started using Pirate ship.
