I'm buying an upper from a buddy in Ky. He's going to ship it to me here in PA. What are some good practices for shipping something like this?
EDIT: Its a full upper with bolt and CH, 20" govt. |

Wrap it in bubble wrap, put it in a box, purchase postage and insurance, attach a shipping label and send it off. This. Buy a whole roll of bubble wrap and make sure you really protect the muzzle and the receiver end. Put it in a suitable box and be sure to insure it. I generally stay away from Fed Ex and UPS because they ask too many questions. I have REALLY good luck with the USPS. |

Ask him what in the hell he did with all of his BCM boxes! ![]() This. I just received another bcm box today that's going to be used next week to ship out an upper. I've never had ups ask anything other than what was in the box. I tell them "upper receiver" and they say "okay". I doubt they even know what it actually is. |
