Yes, a pre-1899 gun is considered antique under federal law. I've received antique long guns via both UPS and USPS without any problem. (But if something ever goes wrong, I'm sure either entity would be an absolute pain in the *ss to deal with !)
I was once overcharge by UPS, and it quickly becaame clear to me that NOBODY that I spoke with/dealt with had ANY IDEA what their own rules/policies were ! I learned more in 10 minutes on their website than any of their people did via their training program.
It's sad that so many people don't know their own job, don't do it well, and/or plain just don't give a damn !
So - again - Calvin, the answer is "yes."
