My "Registered" USPS story is similar...took almost 2.5 weeks and had to do a dance to get possession of the gun. Shipped a Parker that way, to myself. The local PO explained that at each stop, the gun was put in a locked cage to await the blessing of that supervisor, etc until the final destination. Might not happen quickly is a big understatement. But at least it WAS secure! And it did arrive intact...
I have never sent "Registered" again. I find insuring it for a few thousand $ gets their attention and usually arrives in 2-3 days as expected.
