USPS Registered Mail is, IMHO, the safest way to ship a long gun. The packages are kept in a locked area and are signed for at each step of the delivery.They also, as I remember have the highest limit on insurance, $50,000. at rate of $1.55 per thousand.

The one downside is that it is a bit slow and you must use paper tape over a brown paper wrapper so that can stamp it every six inches. I have never had a problem with a postal worker, except that they are not thrilled with all the stamping-and I live in California.
