    Shipping Lowers

    Looking to trade a lower so I am needing to know if it is legal to ship a stripped lower from one person in Texas to another person in Texas without using an FFL? Ive heard you can ship rifles but didnt know about lowers. If it is legal, do you recommend UPS, FedEx, or USPS? Thanks.

      If it’s not a built pistol lower, and I use usps they are the closest and easiest to me and don’t ask questions.

        You just box it up and ship it like a normal package? You don't have to let them know whats in it?

          It was built as a rifle but it will be shipped as a stripped lower. Only has the trigger guard and bolt catch installed.

            Yes just box it in a normal unmarked box. They will not ask about firearms inside. All they ask are perishables and such. Do not declare it as a firearm.

                No sir they don’t. You can even ship USPS if you want.

                  Would UPS or FedEx be better? I dont get off work in time to send USPS unless I go on Friday...

                    I personally like fedex better. Either will be fine though.

                      From the way I understand it, once a Rifle always a rifle. Someone feel free to correct me.

                          Thats the way I get it as well but being that its been stripped back down, I wasnt sure if it could pose an issue being theres no proof it was ever a rifle.

                            Yes just like a normal package, they’ve only asked me once what was in box and I said tools.

                              The serial number proves it is a rifle.
