Why I said "you cannot use usps" in the paticular case of "can I ship and action" and what some are missing, especially one person who called bull on me is the bare receiver RP asked about. It IS "any other firearm" it is a "firearm" by definition, "it can be concealed on your person" annnnnd it can be either a rifle or a handgun if not in a rifle config no matter how it was "born" and which FET was paid on MFG.

IF the receiver was registered as a RIFLE or SHOTGUN then the part about "it can be concealed on your person" is invalid. It does not matter if it is a complete firearm or a stripped receiver.

You are confusing AOW's with a registered stripped rifle receiver. As an FFL you should know better than that.

[*=left]Pistols, revolvers, and other firearms capable of being concealed on the person (referred to as “handguns”) are nonmailable in the domestic mail, except as permitted in Exhibit 432.1 (http://pe.usps.com/text/pub52/pub52c4_009.htm#ep308518)and DMM 601.11.1.
[*=left]The disassembled parts of a handgun or other type of nonmailable firearm that can be readily reassembled as a weapon are nonmailable, except as permitted in Exhibit 432.1 (http://pe.usps.com/text/pub52/pub52c4_009.htm#ep308518)and DMM 601.11.1 or 601.11.2.

ATF regulations and PO regulations are not always in jive. PO can determine what they will or will not ship. Ammo for instance.

We weren't discussing ammunition were we?

You're still missing "other firearms" AZ, any receiver, even a suppressor is a "firearm". It doesn't matter what it was made as, like I said. Asd yes I know what an AOW is, AND maybe you should know any "other firearm" and "any other weapon" are not the same thing. Don't be telling me what I should or should not know.

As I said before. ASK THE ATF. Anyone should know better than to ask about Fed law on a firearms forum and I should know better than to try and answer. I won't be back to this topic.
