Hello, new to the board and had a question.
I live in Arizona and my dad lives in Illinois. He is giving me a shotgun he has had for a few years. I am traveling home to Illinois with the family in a month. From what I've read you can send a shotgun/rifle to yourself through the USPS. Does anybody know if you can walk into the USPS in Illinois with a packaged shotgun and just let them know you have a shotgun and you are sending it back home? This is my first time sending a firearm and don't want to freak anybody out. I know Illinois has some pretty strict gun laws. I want to be able to ship the shotgun back to AZ before I leave IL.
Thanks
Brad
