R.J. Anton was a well known stockmaker from this area,Waterloo,Iowa, and he shipped and received dozens, if not hundreds, of guns through the Hudson,Iowa post office where my father was postmaster. Dad told me he shipped them without a hitch for the time dad was postmaster and he was insuring some of the guns for up to $10grand.This was in the late 60's and early 70's.I think USPS is a better way to go but often it is the "luck of the draw" that prevails.
