What have you all learned is the easiest way to ship parts and ammo that dont require an FFL? I sold an 18" upper and some ammo and am getting a little confused about exactly what UPS and fedex allow and at what locations. Can ammo and non ffl parts be shipped together?
when selling how do you all ship?

I'm lucky as I have a UPS hub within a mile. I've shipped entire rifles back for warranty work and ammo to a friend (both more than 5 years ago). But I didn't have any issues. Only thing needed for the ammo was the ORM-D labels, but that has changed since then as well.

UPS is getting a bit sticky on some gun parts, that being said when they ask you what you're shipping, best thing is something like "steel parts", or "pipe", both technically correct. I had a desk clerk at one shipping place almost freak out when I said rifle barrel, you need to understand they don't have a lot of understanding -- so a supervisor came over and determined it was just "pipe."
Ammo needs a special label, ORM-D if I recall,
Some UPS places will not ship a rifle, other, bigger UPS outfits will. Same thing with Fedex, I had to go up to a fedex ~15 mi away to ship a rifle to an ffl, the local little fedex place couldn't handle it for me."Down the floor, out the door, Go Brandon Go!!!!!"
