Has anyone mailed a Tuffpack with a rifle in it within the U.S.? I am thinking it would be a good way to package a rifle for FFL to FFL transfer of a new purchase via USPS. Thoughts? Thanks! Dave | ||

I know Andy Hawk uses USPS. I also bought a tuffpak from Frank Martinez and he mailed it up here to AK via USPS. So I would assume you could put a rifle in it and ship via USPS. ______________________ DRSS ______________________ Hunt Reports 2015 His & Her Leopards with Derek Littleton of Luwire Safaris - http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/2971090112 2015 Trophy Bull Elephant with CMS http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/1651069012 DIY Brooks Range Sheep Hunt 2013 - http://forums.accuratereloadin...901038191#9901038191 Zambia June/July 2012 with Andrew Baldry - Royal Kafue http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/7971064771 Zambia Sept 2010- Muchinga Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/4211096141 Namibia Sept 2010 - ARUB Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6781076141 | |||

Thanks guys. Guess it was a bit off-topic for this forum section. Think I overshot my Tango quota for the evening! Appreciate the responses... Dave | |||

Dave, I've shipped rifles a number of times via USPS. It works great and is much cheaper than UPS. For hunts within the US I just send the guns ahead addressed to myself c/o the outfitter. Makes flying to a hunt alot easier. Mark MARK H.

Thanks Mark. I always use USPS as well..you know how it is in Ak... Mainly I was wondering about mailing a rifle in a TuffPak. Seems a reasonable idea to protect the rifle... | |||

Dave, I do know how it is in Alaska. I lived in Dillingham for 22 years. I don't see why the Tuffpak would not work fine. I've shipped rifles in all sorts of inexpensive cases so the Tuffpak should be even better. Mark MARK H.

My recommendation would be to send it by UPS and spend a little more on your piece of mind. Years ago, I too, had a brand new Browning pump shotgun come up missing through USPS. Never arrived and they could never locate it. It's your gun and your call however. | |||

I've sent two by mail. One with and one without a rifle. The rifled case was locked and well padded. The cost from the hub is lower than the UPS store if you go that route. Frank | |||
