How to ship a shotgun?

Friend is going to ship me a shotgun from Vegas. What are the procedures for doing so? Have an FFL holder lined up to receive.

His FFL may have a box he can use. If not, ask him to buy a cheap plastic rifle/shotgun case. You can get them for $30 online or at Academy. Tape it up and stick a label on it.

I don't know if it's 100% required on the shipper's end, but I've always sent stuff to my dad in Florida via my FFL up here in Indiana. They usually charge me a transfer fee, but it's the same price that a shipping label would cost me if I had shipped it directly to my dad's FFL.
I'd drop it off at my FFL, give them my dad's FFL information, pay, and walkout. They usually would have a box that would fit whatever it would be that I'm sending to him.

Why go through the trouble of FFL?
Put it in a box and send it UPS

Make sure it’s idiot-proof packed. I had BP Shop send a shotgun back to Beretta in the original box and they beat the shite out of it to the point I traded it in.
