Why even tell them that you are shipping a firearm??? It likely isnt your first rodeo doing it.

For domestic shipments, the post office should not be asking you what you are shipping, even if insuring it.

Best practices...

Never put anything on the box or in the address that even suggests there may be a firearm inside. Address it to a person, or an abreviation of the business name if it contains the word “gun” or anything similar.

To avoid any chance of hasstle at the counter from a rogue clerk, it is a good idea to just use the USPS click n ship offering on their website. You can process the shipment, insure it and print the label right online. You put the label on the box and drop it off at the counter/hand it to your carrier. No questions asked, period.
