For the unwary, the subject of shipping guns and barrels arises on this forum every year or so, with the same issues, same result and same recommendations, that is, ship USPS insured for the full amount, in heavy duty PVC tubing for barrels, sturdy cardboard and inexpensive plastic gun case or built up wood case for guns. Identify it as a gun to the Post Office and insure for full amount. I've shipped guns insured for $10,000 many times with no damage and no issues. The USPS insured procedure takes a few days longer because they are kept in locked bins overnight and must be bar code read and processed at each transit point.
