Shipping cost is only few dollars more.

I recently bought a gun from our own Mr. Swanson and he shipped it in a wooden crate which is practically bullet proof. Right now the gun and crate is with Brian Dudley. When it returns I attempt to post pics. I ship exclusively USPS and have never had a problem. The cost to ship this crate was only $22.00. Not bad considering the secure manner in which it will travel and it does'nt look like a gun is inside.
