Rep. Sheri Biggs Introduces Legislation to Ensure Ability to Ship Firearms

On April 28, 2025, Representative Sheri Biggs (R-SC-03) introduced the Protecting the Mailing of Firearms Act (H.R. 3033).

This legislation will remove the arbitrary prohibition on the mailing of handguns and ammunition via the United States Postal Service (USPS). For years, major common carriers have placed increasingly burdensome restrictions on shipping firearms, ammunition and common firearm accessories at the behest of anti-gun extremists. At the same time, the USPS prohibits the mailing of handguns and ammunition.

This double whammy of anti-gun sentiment has made it increasingly difficult for law-abiding gun owners to ship their firearms, ammunition, and firearm accessories for lawful purposes. Whether it is to have a gun serviced by a manufacturer or gunsmith, buy and sell used gun parts online, or to avoid the difficulties of traveling cross-country with a firearm, many gun owners need the ability to ship firearms, ammunition, and parts, and they are often left with little to no ability to do so. This legislation would require USPS, a government run agency,  to allow gun owners to ship all types of firearms,  ammunition, and parts with confidence.
